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.

We allowed ourselves to categorize voodoo in the same way as magic or witchcraft, relegating voodoo cults to the rank of primitive, ancestral, frozen practices. However, the voodoo are contemporary to us. Established since time immemorial, they coexist alongside Christianity and Islam. Its "pantheon" hosts the main figures of Mawu-Lisa, Hevieso, Sakpata and…

Moments worth preserving and studying."—Aaron L. Morrison In the tradition of street photography, Chris Maliwat caught moments of random people…

Bruce Gilden has never taken a break from his photography... Except once, in that miserable spring of 2020 when the first Covid attack took us prisoners. Stuck upstate New York with no assistant, and left with his Leica, his wife and a car, ‘lockdowned’ Bruce was going nuts. Late May, after the death of George Floyd, History came to the rescue with the massive protests springing out all over New…

Intimate portraits, images, imprints where everyone stages their own hands under the lights, often for the first time, and thus take the time and…
The chalet, a luxurious and romantic remote mountain hut that exists in “splendid isolation” in a sunny winter landscape — this is one of the most popular cliché images of Switzerland. However, the actual meaning of the term “chalet”, derived from the Latin word cala: “protected place”, is simply that of an Alpine dairy hut or shelter. On his many trips through his adopted home, Patrick Lambertz has run into…
