Deutsches Haus at NYU presents Ulisse by Marc Ohrem-Leclef. He presents it like this.
In Ulisse, I work with found letters and photographs, vernacular images, as well as original photographs from my archive and recent images made in ongoing collaborations in Sicily and New York. In dialogue, these visuals –dating from the 1940s to today– explore themes of belonging and memory through three, seemingly unconnected, histories of migration.
