From his home in Cooperstown in upstate New York, Danish photographer MARC HOM recalls moving to New York City when he was 21, and cutting his teeth working at Harper's Bazaar. A veteran New Yorker known for his iconic portraits of some of the world's most notable figures, Marc talks about establishing trust with his subjects, and about his recent museum exhibition Marc Hom: Re-Framed, his first, in which he challenged his viewers to understand photography in new and unexpected ways.

Marc selects a work by Paul Høm from the SMK collection.
