Riguardo questo articolo

Blue cloth, 188 pp., profusely illus. in BW. Text is in German, English, and French. "Primarily a picture book laying no claim to completeness or balance. It illustrates things that evince a remarkable degree of perfection, or embody some idea capable of further development. In fact, it is really a kind of survey from the compiler's personal standpoint of the evolution of form towards the middle of the Twentieth Century. It therefore begins with his own work and thence passes on to that of like-minded designers in Switzerland and other countries." (p. 7) Author Max Bill (1908-1994) was a Swiss designer and artist. A scarce volume, in any condition. G (Ex-art library, with marks on spine, book block edges, and outermost pages, incl. rear pocket; no dj; outer spine is missing some material and spine was fixed with heavy clear tape; has bookplate; page edges are tanning lightly; text and illus. are clear.).
