Bernd and Hilla Becher
Published by Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt, Frankfurt 1992, 72 pages (b/w ill.), 18.5 × 24 cm, English / German
Price: €25

“The husband and wife team of Bernd and Hilla Becher began photographing together in 1959. For close to fifty years, they documented architectural forms they collectively referred to as “anonymous sculpture.” Their extensive series of water towers, blast furnaces, coal mine tipples, framework houses of mine workers, and other vernacular industrial architecture—often technologies on the verge of obsolescence—comprise an in-depth study of the intricate relationship between form and function.”—Fraenkel Gallery.

Thomas Ruff
Published by Museum für Moderne Kunst Frankfurt, Frankfurt, 1992, 56 pages (colour & b/w ill.), 18.5 × 24 cm, English / German
Price: €19

At the heart of Thomas Ruff’s complex oeuvre is a pioneering conceptual expansion of what constitutes photography. Ruff’s prodigious output varies widely, from analogue portraits to manipulated images appropriated from the internet, digitally-altered archival images and digital photograms. Works by the Dusseldorf-based artist consistently explore how historical and media-driven changes in photography affect our understanding of the relationship between image and reality.
