View of Metallhüttenwerk industrial plant showing blast furnace head C, Lübeck-Herrenwyk, Germany
PH1987:1006
Description:
- The group of 86 photographs PH1987:0996 - PH1987:1081 by Bernd and Hilla Becher show 75 views of steel mill blast furnaces and 11 views of mines. There are 45 views of steel mill blast furnaces in Germany, 15 in the United States, and five in each of France, Luxembourg and Belgium. There are five views of mines in Germany, two in Belgium, two in the United States, and one in each of France and Wales. - The group of 86 photographs PH1987:0996 - PH1987:1081 by Bernd and Hilla Becher show 45 views of steel mill blast furnaces in Germany including: 36 views of three blast furnaces of the Metallhüttenwerk in Lübeck-Herrenwyk (PH1987:0996 - PH1987:1031); three views of the Thyssen Hütte steel mill in Ruhrort, Duisburg (PH1987:1033, PH1987:1043 and PH1987:1050); two views of the Gute-Hoffnungs-Hütte steel mill in Oberhausen, Ruhr (PH1987:1044 and PH1987:1070); and one view each of the Klöckner Werke steel mill in Haspe (PH1987:1032), the Schalker Verein steel mill in Gelsenkirchen, Ruhr (PH1987:1042), the Ilseder Hütte steel mill in Ilsede (PH1987:1034) and the Hainer Hütte steel mill in Siegen (PH1987:1045). - The photographers indicate that the group of six photographs PH1987:1006 - PH1987:1011 of views of Metallhüttenwerk industrial plant, Lübeck-Herrenwyk, Germany, should be exhibited in two columns arranged from top to bottom and left to right according to the photographers' numerical inscriptions "D 1" through "D 6". Photograph PH1987:1006 would therefore be at the top of the left column, while photograph PH1987:1011 would be at the bottom of the right column (Kicken Pauseback, 1987).
