The explosive growth in photography book publishing has presented photo-eye with an interesting challenge along with what we think is an exciting opportunity.
How can we continue to offer an ever-increasing inventory of photography books, keep those books continuously in stock and compete with the online deep discounters on price and shipping? The answer is that we can shift much our fullfillment to the web's most efficient book operation, Amazon.com.
Now we are happy to offer you Amazon's discounts on books which are almost always in stock from either Amazon directly or Amazon Marketplace. We can also provide you with the same shipping options that Amazon provides, including on qualified orders, free shipping.
It's important to understand that you will still be supporting photo-eye if you order from Amazon or Amazon Marketplace through photoeye.com. We make it easy for you to do this by providing a dual shopping cart system with separate checkouts.
However, you may still opt to purchase a particular title from photo-eye directly even though the same book is available through Amazon at a less expensive price.
Book publishing is not a perfect industry. Though all books are imperfect in some subtle way, we want to be as accurate as possible on our website if we know that there is a problem with a particular book. Imperfections range from a rubbed dustjacket, a small tear in the dustjacket, or a corner of the book being bumped. No fundamental flaw should be part of an imperfect book's condition. E-mail us our call 505.988.5152 should you have questions prior to ordering a particular imperfect book.
Place your order now and we'll send you the item when it arrives.
You will not be charged until your order ships.
An additional change will be added to the standard handling charge for this item as it is a foreign publication and shipping expenses from foreign countries is extremely expensive or it requires a larger, more expensive box or it requires extra care in handling. Thank you for understanding!
Picked as Book of the Week by Hester Keijser
Animal Imago is Nimcova's fourth publication, this time around, departing from social and documentary topics, finding herself publishing a book for KIDS of all ages, dealing with our relationship with animals and nature around us.
How do we, urban animals of the 21st century, relate to other animals? Whatever the relationship, the dominant idea is that man is a superior species. However, increasingly it appears that we have abused our position as ‘top species’. What can we learn if we really try to listen to, collaborate with or put ourselves in the animals’ place? And how can we use these insights, to our benefit too, to build a more acceptable and sustainable future? (source: KAAI THEATER catalogue 03/2013)
The project comprises many approaches to the topic of animals, but also to the medium of photography itself. In my research I document and collect material about animals being humanized by different societies around the world. The final work will take the form of installation and publication – offering the many possible faces and roles embedded within the image material. Another aspect of this process involves virtually sending images taken or chosen for the project to my little niece Chuanita when I am not able to communicate with people. It is some kind of non-verbal answer to her questions: why do I have to travel? What am I searching for?
I find this combination of approaches very inspiring and surprising, due to the huge gap between nature and subsequent documentation of it. In essence, it speaks to the idea that the reality of the world around us is never a given, it is something we have to create.
Out-of-stock books are available to backorder from photo-eye.
