These categorising photographs by Wolf reminded me of the artists - Bernd and Hilla Bechers' series on industrial structures in 1970's US. Who were included in the 1975 exhibition New Topographics: photographs of a man altered landscape' which bought together photographers concerned with the categorisation of the man-made environment. The photographs by Wolf seem to continue on the theme laid out by the Bechers'.
