<pre><font face="Gill Sans"><big>
<big>a film by erich schmid</big>
the film about max bill (1908-1994) moves between the dynamic fields of
art, aesthetics and politics. max bill was probably the most important
swiss artist of the 20th century and the most famous student to come out
of the legendary bauhaus in dessau. he was an ardent anti-fascist and
all his avant-garde work as an artist, sculptor, architect and
typographer showed a social responsibility and environmental awareness
right through his life. his views have become incredibly topical.
