The Dusseldorf School of Photography

The Düsseldorf School of Photography has become a byword for artistic excellence and innovation.\n\nThis large format, magnificently printed volume traces its ascendancy from the mid-1970s, when husband and wife team Bernd and Hilla Becher first gave art photography institutional support and a home.\n\nFilled with superb reproductions of three generations of the participating artists’ best-known photographs, this impeccable survey offers the first thorough overview of this important school, one that dominates the sale-rooms and museums of our times.\n\nBernd & Hilla Becher\nLaurenz Berges\nElger Esser\nAndreas Gursky\nCandida Höfer\nAxel Hütte\nSimone Nieweg\nThomas Ruff\nJörg Sasse\nThomas Struth\nPetra Wunderlich
