Area of a pentagon in space with plain circumference 1977

Here is the audio guide script about Max Bill’s Area of a pentagon in space with plain circumference. This artwork by Max Bill is a real head-scratcher, isn’t it? Made with… something shiny, that's for sure. I can imagine Bill, back in the day, wrestling with these shapes, bending them, trying to make sense of space. You know, geometry can be so emotional! Look at how the light bounces off these planes, creating these soft gradients. It is hard to work in this style, you know? There’s a conversation happening here with folks like Moholy-Nagy and the whole Bauhaus crew. They were all trying to find new ways of seeing. These artists were all in dialogue, throwing ideas back and forth. I think abstraction isn't about answers, it's about opening up new ways of asking questions. It's about embracing the unknown. And this artwork by Bill does that in spades.
