Description
Bernd & Hilla Becher: A Photographic Legacy
For over five decades, the photographic partnership of Bernd and Hilla Becher documented industrial architecture across Europe and beyond. This comprehensive monograph showcases their iconic images of water towers, gas tanks, blast furnaces, and other structures as sculptural objects. The book delves into the Bechers' artistic process, conceptual underpinnings, and relationship to deindustrialization, offering new insights into their work. It also features Bernd's early drawings, Hilla's independent photographs, and excerpts from their notes, sketchbooks, and journals. An essay by cultural historian Lucy Sante and an interview with Max Becher, the artists' son, provide a nuanced look at the Bechers' art and career.Related Products
