Swiss artist, architect, designer, typographer, and theorist Max Bill (1908-94) stands as a pivotal figure in the history of 20th-century European applied arts and design. Educated under the guidance of renowned instructors such as Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, and Walter Gropius at the Bauhaus in Dessau, Bill showcased an exceptional talent from the very beginning of his career in the 1930s. His expertise extended across various artistic domains, including painting, sculpture, architecture, typography, and design. In the 1950s, Bill collaborated with Inge Scholl and Otl Aicher to establish the renowned Ulm College of Design in Ulm, where he assumed the role of the first director. Throughout his career, Bill perpetuated the legacy of the Bauhaus, not only as an artist but also as a teacher. His contributions to 20th-century cultural life were profound and enduring. The newly revised edition of this authoritative and highly sought-after monograph presents a comprehensive overview of Bill's diverse body of work, placing him within the context of his cultural milieu. It features works by his contemporaries, including Kurt Schwitters, Wassily Kandinsky, and Donald Judd, to provide a deeper understanding of Bill's artistic influences. Accompanying essays delve into Bill's impact on other artists and the enduring significance of his oeuvre in the present. This text is available in both English and German.
