GAEL GOERS—Muse: Photographs (Daniel 13—Carrboro NC ) 1st Ed Trade PB

Description: • For Your Consideration: • A *SIGNED Trade Paperback (First Edition) of: • “MUSE: PHOTOGRAPHS” (Daniel 13, 2014) (Trade Paperback, First Edition, First Printing) • BY GAEL GOERS *SIGNED by the artist on the Dedication Page. • “GAIL GOERS uses her 4×5 view camera to amplify a sense of place. Her latest book, MUSE, released by DANIEL 13 in 2014, examines the solitary spaces of modern day cities.” —THE PUBLISHER • “GAIL GOERS leaves no space forgotten in her new photographic collection, MUSE. Taken in Magdeburg, Germany and Guangzhou, China between 2009 and 2012, the images capture places and objects we often take for granted. Not a single photo has a person in it, and that’s the point. When we see people, we think movement and energy; we focus on the object. The background becomes scenery, and we glaze over it. But GOERS wants us to contemplate the background. The…title plays on the classical meaning of ‘muse’ as the (usually male) artist’s (usually female) object of inspiration as well as the verb meaning ‘to gaze meditatively and wonderingly.’ GOERS does the latter in this collection, capturing what might otherwise be considered industrial byproducts of the city-space: barges, manmade waterways, bus stops and dusty skylines.”—ZOE GONZALEZ, INDY WEEK • ABOUT THE PUBLISHER: “Founded in 2005, DANIEL 13 has blossomed into an eclectic umbrella for JEFFERSON HOLT’s myriad philanthropic interests. A dedicated art collector, patron, and human catapult, HOLT—who managed R.E.M. from 1981 to 1996—first established the Carrboro, North Carolina-based DANIEL 13 as a small press but has since redefined the independent operation as a kind of creative benefaction, providing vital support to emerging artists and photographers, musicians and filmmakers, writers and burlesque performers…. Among DANIEL 13’s releases are works by ANDY GERSHON (PHOTOURIST) and PAMELA PECHCIO (509). DANIEL 13-published collections have received a number of high honors, with TIMOTHY ARCHIBALD’s ‘SEX MACHINES: Photographs and Interviews’ and LUCY FUR’s ‘ROOM WITH A VIEW’ both receiving top prizes from the Independent Publishers Book Awards.” • ABOUT THE ARTIST: “As I got older, I lost myself in the world of books so completely that I often missed out on what was going on in the world around me. In learning photography, I learned how to be present and see the world again.” —GAEL GOERS • • For other details about this book, please see below. • TITLE: “MUSE: Photographs” ARTIST: GAEL GOERS ILLUSTRATED: YES!

We are grateful you choose to trust us with your business. We aim for that gratitude to permeate every part of how we engage with you.3. OUR DESCRIPTIONS. We describe every item we sell as clearly and accurately as we can. When it comes to describing condition, we tend toward being conservative. 4. PACKING & SHIPPING. We know from experience that items, when not thoughtfully packed, can be damaged during shipment. To avoid that real danger, FLAPPINCAT wraps & cushions your purchase(s) mindfully—and sometimes zealously—in a sturdy package.

OUR PRICES. We try to offer the lowest prices on eBay for items we sell. Even our most expensive offerings tend to be lower than what others are asking. “You could look it up!” —to quote baseball immortal JACK KEEFE. SUMMARY: We know you have many buying options on eBay. FLAPPINCAT tries to be distinctive by being accurate, mindful, and friendly. *********** How We GRADECONDITION ***********DETAILS. The condition of every item we sell will be described in detail.FLAWS. All discernible flaws will be noted, if not emphasized. Of course, the grading of condition can be subjective. And since no grader is perfect, it is possible that we may at times miss a flaw. It is also possible that we may miss some perfections! Should we make a mistake, you will find FLAPPINCAT eager to fix things with you. Just send us a note and we’ll get on it.GRADING SYSTEM. For books and magazines (and even other items), we use these terms (in order of desirability): VERY FINE or LIKE NEW FINE (or EXCELLENT) NEAR FINE (or NF) VERY GOOD PLUS (or VG+) VERY GOOD (or VG) GOOD FAIR ACCEPTABLE POOR “POOR.” Except in rare cases, for rare items, we tend to avoid selling items that are in utterly “POOR” condition. It is more likely that on a rare item, only one part of an item (out of numerous parts) will be described as “POOR.”RETURNS. We accept that you may wish to return a purchase because you genuinely think we haven't described and graded its condition properly. We accept that we our* imperfect. We also accept that people can see things differently—and still be civil! (*Get it?)POP QUIZ. Please feel free to ask questions at any time about condition (or anything else, except math).
