Description

Exhibition sketches by the eminent designer

Swiss architect, artist, and industrial designer (1908–1994) known for his modernist precision. Unusual set of unsigned pencil sketches by Bill on three off-white 5.75 x 8.25 sheets, drawn circa 1990. A series of geometric designs and ideas that arose while constructing his exhibit at the Wilhelm Hack Museum in Ludwigshafen, Germany. In overall fine condition. The Wilhelm Hack Museum focuses on modern and contemporary art, with a collection featuring the likes of Malevich, Mondrian, Kandinsky, Miro, and Warhol. Bill was featured in a special exhibition in 1990, and in 1991 constructed the twisting ‘Endless Stair’ sculpture in front of the museum.
