ArchitectureWeek Description
Influential German photographers Bernd and Hilla Becher had as their lifetime project documenting the postwar industrial landscape. This biography describes their life and work and offers a critical assessment of their place in the history of photography. The author discusses the couple's extraordinary partnership and their aesthetic. She argues that industrial buildings shape our perceptions as cathedrals did in the Middle Ages.
