The second installment of art historian Dr. Angela Thomas' German-language, multi-volume biography of her husband Max Bill, providing a highly unconventional and intimate account of the Swiss polymath's life and work during World War II and the postwar period.
Max Bill (1908–1994) was one of the most versatile artists of the 20th Century, working as a designer, painter, sculptor, architect, graphic artist, furniture designer, typographer, writer, curator, educator, lecturer and politician. In her multivolume biography, art historian Angela Thomas uses a variety of sources—books, journals, interviews and several unpublished documents—to introduce readers to the artist’s life and work and to explore the personal, cultural and political circles he was active in. Following the first volume of the biography, published in 2008, Thomas now devotes the second installment to Bill’s life during World War II and the postwar period.
