This volume presents a rigorous typological study of blast furnaces, a hallmark of Bernd and Hilla Becher’s lifelong project to document industrial architecture. Through their signature objective, black-and-white photographic style, the artists capture the structural complexity of these iron-producing monuments. The collection serves as a definitive record of the vanishing industrial landscape, emphasizing the formal, sculptural qualities of functional engineering.
