Format: Hardback

Condition: Very Good — £17.47
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Nives Widauer (*1965 in Basel) works in a variety of different media. Besides photographs and films, her portfolio also includes paintings, sculptures, and installations for the stages of theaters and opera houses. During the Lucerne Festival in 2011, the Swiss artist discovered her enthusiasm for the instrument cases of the Vienna Philharmonic, which was rehearsing in the Culture and Congress Center at Lake Lucerne. Widauer was fascinated by the arrangement of the musicians' cases, bags, clothes, and shoes that accompany the orchestra on its tours throughout the world. Her photographs present the life of the objects that dress the famous orchestra beyond concert appearances and protect the precious instruments. At the same time, during the tours the objects repeatedly seek new, temporary shelter-hidden in the interior of the architectural concert-hall jewels invisible to the public.
