Everyone has a unique starting point in their own memory: for Li Lang it all started in 1974. The work consists of 390 slides playing in a loop, accompanied by his voice reading four stories drawn from his memory of that year, a summary of its important events, and vignettes recorded on site. Working mainly with images, he inserts his observations of history into the fuzzy zone between reality and fiction, along with his reflections on the contradictions between them. The slides come from vintage prints collected over the years from different sources.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
