Swiss artist, architect, designer, typographer, and theorist Max
Bill (1908-94) was one of the most important exponents of concrete
and constructive art and a key figure in the history of
20th-century European applied arts and design. Educated by such
eminent teachers as Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, and Walter
Gropius at the Bauhaus in Dessau, Bill immediately displayed a
genius for work in fields as diverse as painting, sculpture,
architecture, typography and design from the outset of his career
in the 1930s. In the 1950s, he teamed up with Inge Scholl and Otl
Aicher to found the legendary Ulm College of Design in Ulm, of
which he became the first director. In his work, Max Bill carried
on the Bauhaus legacy, both as an artist and a teacher, and made a
decisive and lasting contribution to 20th-century cultural life.
The new edition of this authoritative and much sought-after
monograph displays Bill's wide-ranging work and sets him in the
context of his cultural milieu by featuring works by his
contemporaries, such as Kurt Schwitters, Wassily Kandinsky, and
Donald Judd. Accompanying essays investigate Bill's influence on
other artists and the lasting importance of his oeuvre in the
present. Text in English and German.
