Marc Hom showcases his works at the Fenimore Museum in Cooperstown, New York, far from gallery conventions: indoors and in nature, initially intimate and small-scale, then larger than life - outdoors in movable frames, subject to the wind, sun, and shadows. This new style of photo presentation from inception to completion is shown in the book. The execution and impact of this exhibition concept documented in the book expand the viewer's visual habits of photography. Part museum experiment, part documentary book project: Re-Framed shows the work of famed photographer Marc Hom in a whole new light. In this combined indoor/outdoor exhibition, viewers engage with the medium of portrait photography via the juxtaposition of a controlled classical indoor show with sculpture-like eleven-foot- tall photographs displayed and left exposed outdoors in the open air. This creates a new way to experience photography in an ever-evolving environment, while discovering oversized, larger-than-life pieces amidst the green lawn and lakeshore behind the museum building. Hom’s outdoor studio portraits, displayed in flexible three-meter-high frames, are vulnerable to elements that change the viewing experience: literally, the wind and weather. In his oeuvre-spanning show, the renowned Danish photographer provides examples from the last twenty years of his unique ability to stage seemingly private and intimate moments in the lives of his subjects in creative and unexpected ways. This makes Re-Framed a retrospective that brings both his work and photography in general, with its layered contemporary meanings, into a new dimension, allowing viewers to explore captivating images in their own way.

Jackson, Rafael Nadal, Taylor Swift, and Miley Cyrus, among other legendary personalities. It also makes an unforgettable impression with its unique cover design and interior layout that exudes its own special style, just like the exhibit itself.
