The first retrospective dedicated to Max Bill (Winterthur, 1908–Berlin, 1994) in Spain presents a concentrated view of the artist’s complete oeuvre, covering—chronologically and thematically—every facet of his multifaceted work: painting, graphic art, sculpture, architecture, book and magazine design, industrial and furniture design, graphic design and advertising typography—from large-format posters to small inserts in periodicals—as well as the design of exhibition spaces. A meticulous selection of 170 works and documents from public and private collections in Europe and America reflect this idea of the ‘concentrated retrospective’.
