Photography, artists and art

(technique)Since the end of the 1950s, Bernd and Hilla Becher have been traveling around Europe and North America. They photograph mines, winding towers, gas containers, blast furnaces, power stations, cooling towers, grain silos, warehouses. They have to this very day remained true to their project of an almost encyclopedic stocktaking of anonymous utility buildings from the age of industrialization. In doing so, they opt for a decidedly matter-of-fact and sober visual idiom that is appropriately expressed by black-and-white photography. This ensures that the steel edifices stand out particularly vividly. In the serial setting, the individual shots (which reveal basic shapes and deviations, similarities and differences) merge to form typologies.

Puttelaar, Carla van de

Bob Carlos Clarke

Bob Carlos Clarke worked in almost every sphere of photography, winning numerous awards for his high-profile advertising campaigns, recognition for his photojournalism and portraits of celebrities, and international acclaim from collectors of fine prints. He established a body of work that was original, diverse, challenging and often beautiful. It was always striking: you couldn’t walk past his pictures without emotion or reaction. He was taken by the gothic and the futuristic, and he was fascinated by the organic enchantment of cemeteries.
