Constructive Clarity

The second volume of Angela Thomas?s multivolume biography, which covers Bill's life during World War II and the postwar period.

Max Bill 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multivolume biography, art historian Angela Thomas uses a variety of sources -books, journals, interviews, and several unpublished documents - to introduce readers to the artist's life and work and to explore the personal, cultural, and political circles he was active in.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, Thomas now devotes the second installment to Bill's life during World War II and the postwar period.
