Bernd and Hilla Becher’s inadvertent human science by Andrew Moisey

“…While the Bechers’ typologies of industrial architecture were being adopted as art, Wilson’s sociobiology was adopting mathematics to objectively picture human tool variation. This article shows how the Bechers inadvertently solved a key problem of objectivity in human science when they photographically abstracted each tool family’s parameters into a scientific window onto the landscape of thought. …”
