Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. Hardback. Warm, witty, honest and occasionally outlandish, this book is studded with more stars than the Milky Way, from Hollywood legends like Bette Davis and Sophia Loren, to music giants like Jim Morrison and John lennon, Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson.…It also features the other stars of David's life, his ever-dutiful housemaids, Big Yetta and Vaginica Ceaman, colleagues like Poolitta Barffman and Freddie Big Balls; his one-legged nun mother, his bicarre cousins and sadistic man-killing aunts. For everyone who was tantalised by his tall tales and celebrity friends, for all those who are dying to know the real Dvaid Gest, this is the book you have been itching to read. So be David's guest, curl up and get ready to be entertained, very, very entertained. Illustrated. 291 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).

This is another paragraph Product Description: Part memoir, part his take on life, the universe and Hollywood, this is an all-round portrait of a true original. David Gest was the star of this year's I'm a Celebrity.Get Me Out of Here! His tall tales, huge sense of fun and sheer likeability proved to be ratings gold and his stories and expressions have become national catchphrases. Not only did he win over the British public with his charm, flamboyance and amazing sense of humour, but he was revealed as someone who, despite the fact that he has had extraordinary experiences and moves in circles most of us can't even imagine, we can all relate to, someone who cares. This book that will broaden our perception of the person we all fell in love with on that show and will cover a wide range of topics from the humorous, to the celebrity, to the more serious and cultural: we are all longing to know his secret.

Published in a small and limited print run as a softcover original only. The Exhibition Catalog is now scarce. An austerely elegant production by Ben… Gest and Contact Sheet: Oversize-volume format. Pictorial softcovers with titles on the cover and spine, as issued. Photographs by Ben Gest. Essay by Hannah Frieser. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in the United States to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of the landmark retrospective exhibition held at Light Work Gallery Syracuse, New York in 2007. Presents "Ben Gest". Digitally-assembled imagery that aspires to change the current "conversation" between photography and painting (whereby the former now dominates the latter) by adopting painting's spatial perspective to arrive at a new way of creating, not just taking, photographs. "Captures his lone sitters at the chance interstices of deep reflection, when the self dwells in thought. The construction of the self as it happens before Gest's camera serves to question the construction of that self in reality. Gest uses digital photography to monumentalize photography's ability to capture such fleeting moments. Each photograph is seamlessly constructed from hundreds of digital images of the sitter and their surroundings. The photographs' initial straightforward appearance can only be maintained at a cursory glance. Gest's subtle and not-so-subtle exaggerations of proportion and perspective quickly betray the images as Mannerist constructions" (Publisher's blurb). With their static character, the photographs recall the ground-breaking work of Philip-Lorca DiCorcia (achieved by Gest using elaborate digital manipulation rather than elaborate actual production) yet have a contemplative, thoughtful quality all their own. Individually and cumulatively, they remind us of the necessity of pressing the "pause" button, especially those of us who routinely go about our affluent, hectic social lives. An absolute "must-have" title for Ben Gest collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Ben Gest. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. He signed on top of the page, making it even more prominent. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with full-page color plates. One of the most brilliant American photographers of our time. A fine copy.

An absolute "must-have" title for Ben Gest collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black pen on the title page by Ben Gest. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. He signed on top of the page, making it even more prominent. This title is a contemporary art photography classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or command unheard-of prices because the book is scarce. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with full-page color plates and illustrative materials. One of the most brilliant American photographers of our time. A fine copy.
