Printing Show was an adaptation of Daido Moriyama's 1974 performance of the same name. In 1974, Moriyama held an exhibition of his work shot while in New York in 1971. In that exhibition, instead of framed prints mounted on the gallery walls, visitors saw the photographer stationed at a photocopy machine, duplicating his prints. The output was then staple-bound with a silkscreened cover. The resulting photobook was called Another Country in New York. To commemorate GOLIGA's publication of ACCIDENT, on 4 and 5 November 2011 GOLIGA organized a restaging of this legendary performance at New York's Aperture Gallery. In this restaging, visitors were allowed to select and sequence twenty sheets from a menu of fifty-four options, thus creating their own copy of the photobook. Each edit was executed before the visitors within the gallery space. The resulting photobook was TKY, limited to an edition of 500 copies, each numbered and signed by the photographer.

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.
