	Bernd and Hilla Becher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bernd and Hilla Becher (Bernd born 1931, Hilla 1934) are German photographers most known for their collection of industrial building images examining the similarities and differences in structure and appearance.
		Together, the Bechers went out with a large format camera and photographed these buildings from a number of different angles, but always with a straightforward objective point of view.
		As the founders of what has come to be known as the ‘Becher school’ they have brought their influence in a unique way to bear on generations of documentary photographers and artists.

		A Becher image is generally marked by a surreal and wholly unpopulated sense of overcast desolation.
		In this regard the Bechers are photographers squarely in the German tradition, and their impassive treatment of their subjects recalls August Sander's stoic portraits of anonymous citizens or Karl Blossfeldt's architecturally precise studies of plants.
		Time and again the Bechers' landscapes reveal little towns precariously accommodating themselves to the insistent, bullying sprawl of industry; entire communities are thrown up in the shadows of these factories and mills, with neighborhoods carved out of the surrounding hills and mountainsides.

		Since 1957, husband-and-wife team Bernd and Hilla Becher have traveled throughout Europe and North America taking fl-and-white photographs of industrial architecture: water towers, coal silos, blast furnaces, lime kilns, grain elevators, preparation plants, oil refineries, and the like.
		As professors at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, the Bechers’ systematic, objective approach to subject matter significantly influenced a younger generation of artists including Elger Esser, Andreas Gursky, Candida Höfer, Thomas Ruff, Jörg Sasse, and Thomas Struth.
		Taking into consideration some of the Bechers’ specifications, have students brainstorm a list of common objects or architectural structures that are visually interesting and readily available in their immediate surroundings or neighborhood (for example, manhole covers, hubcaps, fire hydrants, storefronts, doorways).

		His local guides were the Düsseldorf-based artist duo of Bernd and Hilla Becher, and Konrad Fischer, in whose Düsseldorf gallery Smithson was scheduled to exhibit.

		Hilla and Bernd Becher have embraced and expanded on a German tradition of classification articulated by the philosopher Hegel as "types," or individuals representing not only themselves but a class or category.
		The Bechers translated this concept into photographic "typologies," in which a generic group of like structures helps us to understand the essence or "idea" of those structures.
		The husband-and-wife team photographs the same types of objects over and over, under the same light conditions and from the same point of view.
