Description: "Marcel Odenbach is widely known as a pioneering video artist - however, the connections between his video works and his ongoing works on paper call for due recognition. Many of his works reflect the lasting impact of National Socialism up to the present day, all the while bestowing a universal perspective on what is usually constituted as a specifically German concern. Reflections on the familiar and the foreign, elements of his own biography, the interplay between subjective remembrance and collective memory - all of these are crucial themes in his work, which make their claim on the aesthetic as well as the political level"--Publisher's website.
