BERND <(>y<)> HILLA BECHER

For more than five decades, Bernd (19312007) and Hilla (19342015) Becher collaborated on photographs of industrial architecture in Germany, France, Belgium, Holland, Great Britain, and the United States. This sweeping monograph features the Bechers quintessential pictures, which present water towers, gas tanks, blast furnaces, and more as sculptural objects. Beyond the Bechers iconic Typologies, the book includes Bernds early drawings, Hillas independent photographs, and excerpts from their notes, sketchbooks, and journals.
