How we grade the condition of our books:
New: New directly from publisher or artist.
As New: The book is in pristine, original condition as when published. This grade may apply to older books that have been carefully stored, never shelved, thumbed, or opened.
Fine: A Fine book is nearly As New in condition but without being crisp. The book may have been opened and read, but shows no defects to the book, jacket, or pages.
Near Fine: A book approaching Fine (or As New) but with a couple of very minor defects or faults, which must be noted by the seller
Very Good: A book showing small signs of wear but no tears on either binding or paper. The book maintains its structural integrity, and any defects must be noted by the seller.
Good: Describes a book with average wear while maintaining complete text pages. The book is intact and readable, but shows signs of use. Any defects must be noted by the seller.
Fair: A worn book that has complete text pages (including those with maps or plates) but may lack endpapers, half-title, etc. (which must be noted).The binding and jacket (if any) may show significant wear. All defects should be noted.

Featuring over 40 different looks, a text by Romain Mader and an essay by curator and arts writer, Théo-Mario Coppola. "Get the Look!" is Romain Mader’s second publication with Mörel Books, following "Ekaterina", 2016.
Get the Look! is a satirical and critical series of self-portraits questioning the influence of algorithms in our behaviour and decision-making processes, particularly in the current phenomenon of “fast fashion". The clothes worn by the artist were ordered from online sites that sell quickly and cheaply, influenced by Mader and his partner’s browsing activity. After wearing them for photography, the artist returned them to the sender.
Romain Mader (b. 1988) is a Swiss artist who lives and works in Zurich. He is represented by Galerie DIX9 in Paris.
He received a Master of Fine Arts from the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) and a Bachelor in Photography from Ecole Cantonale d’Art de Lausanne (ECAL).
Within his work, Mader creates fictional narratives which explore themes of love, loneliness and human behaviours. His visual storytelling is often performative, particularly evident in his photographic and video works, where Mader steps into the role of actor to bring his stories to life.
Mader has exhibited at FOAM Amsterdam, Paris Photo, Helmhaus Zürich, UNTITLED Miami, Art Rotterdam, OCAT Shanghai, OCAT Shenzhen, Musée d‘art de Pully, Coalmine Winterthur, Images Vevey. He has won multiple awards such as the FOAM Paul Huf Award in 2017 and the Vaud Photographic Survey grant in 2023. Mader has been an artist in residence at Cité internationale des arts in Paris in 2015, the La Fragua in Belalcazar, Spain in 2016 and the Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong in 2019
Mader was featured in the 2016 group exhibition Performing for the Camera in London’s Tate Modern. This coincided with the publication of his first monograph Ekaterina with Mörel Books.
