●内容简介——

现代主义多面手和具体艺术先驱的早期生活：比尔的遗孀、艺术史学家安吉拉.托马斯（Angela Thomas）新出版的两卷传记的一卷。

瑞士艺术家马克斯.比尔（Max Bill，1908-94）一生精通多种行业：他曾是建筑师、平面设计师、画家、工业设计师和字体设计师。作为德索包豪斯学院的瓦西里.康定斯基（Wassily Kandinsky）和保罗.克莱（Paul Klee）等大师的学生，比尔在他们的指导下发展了自己独特的综合设计实践，培养了对包豪斯传统情感的更现代的诠释。他后来成为具体艺术运动的主要倡导者之一，1937年加入瑞士艺术家安联集团。在这本重要的新传记的一卷中，比尔的遗孀、艺术史学家安吉拉.托马斯（Angela Thomas）讲述了比尔从童年在一个瑞士小镇到他在包豪斯（Bauhaus）的成长岁月。托马斯以生动的节奏讲述了她对这位建筑师本人的深入了解，他将比尔作为一名年轻的独立设计师在苏黎世的起步描述为二战前几十年欧洲政治和艺术世界的一部分。这本书一开始是用德语写成的，现在被翻译成英语。这本书为读者提供了对欧洲有影响力的设计师之一的起源的深入描述。

The early life of a modernist polymath and concrete-art pioneer: the first of a new two-volume biography by Bill’s widow, art historian Angela Thomas.

Swiss artist Max Bill (1908–94) was a master of many trades during his lifetime: he was at once an architect, graphic designer, painter, industrial designer and typeface designer. A student of greats such as Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee at the Bauhaus in Dessau, Bill developed his own unique practice of integrated design under their tutelage, cultivating a more contemporary interpretation of more traditional Bauhaus sensibilities. He went on to become one of the main advocates of the concrete art movement, joining the Allianz group of Swiss artists in 1937. In this first volume of a major new biography, Bill’s widow, art historian Angela Thomas, recounts the formative years of Bill’s life from his childhood in a small Swiss town to his time at the Bauhaus. With a lively cadence that speaks to her intimate knowledge of the architect himself, Thomas details Bill’s beginnings in Zurich as a young independent designer as part of a larger portrait of Europe’s political and artistic world in the decades before World War II. Originally written in German and now translated into English for the first time, A Subversive Gleam provides readers with an in-depth account of the origins of one of Europe’s most influential designers.
