The Swiss artist Max Bill (1908-1994) created his Pavilion Sculpture in 1983, a construction comprising clear, straight lines that enjoys a prime spot on the Bahnhofstrasse today. Max Bill made a name for himself as an artist, architect, painter, graphic designer and sculptor. His success ensured that he became a focal point on the Swiss art scene in the 1930s. He devoted himself to concrete art, which aims to translate abstract ideas into concrete objects.
