Erste Ausgabe. Parr/Badger II, 266. Heidtmann 11816. - Mit dreisprachigem Text in Deutsch, Englisch und Französisch. - Erste Veröffentlichung des international renommierten Photographen-Duos und eine der wichtigsten Publikationen der modernen Photographie. Mit Aufnahmen von Kalk- und Hochöfen, Kühl-, Förder- und Wassertürmen sowie Gasbehältern und Silos, die die beiden Künstler zu Ikonen der Industriphotographie machten."Anonyme Skulpturen, though it hardly neglects the informational importance of their practice, seems much more about making an aesthetic statement and establishing the artists' position in late twentieth-century art. All their books are polemical, but this represents their primary artistic credo. For those who are more interested in the Bechers as artists than as industrial archaeologists, this is the one to have on one's shelf." (Parr/Badger). - In den Rändern minimal gebräunt. Sehr gutes Exemplar.
