Lot Essay

Taught by Bernd and Hilla Becher, Boris Becker made his name in the 1980s with his Hochbunker series, which depicts 700 storage facilities from over 50 German cities. He continues to focus on subjects that others would pass over, often working on a large scale, and making a series of photographs on one theme.
