At 192 Books, in Chelsea, hot chocolate was served at the door and the only reserved seat was for Michael Stipe, the lead singer of R.E.M. who once sang about a man on the moon. The New Yorker <br><br> The book - as the project - is deadpan great. It's a gorgeous book that documents Team Sachs' spacey achievement at Gagosian Gallery.
