In this work, Bill explores the relationship between colour, line, and the white field of the canvas. The composition is structured by a cross-axis, where thin, parallel bands of primary colours intersect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title, 1+2+3+4 in weiss, refers to the numerical progression of the coloured lines. Bill employs a rigorous logic, where the number of lines corresponds to the mathematical sequence, creating a sense of order within the pictorial space. The white background is not merely a void, but an active component that defines the limits and the placement of the coloured elements. By stripping away narrative or emotional content, Bill invites the viewer to engage directly with the physical properties of the painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece reflects the artist's background in architecture and industrial design, fields where clarity and function are paramount. The lines do not cross in a traditional sense, but rather shift in their arrangement, suggesting a system that exists beyond the frame. The use of a limited palette of red, blue, yellow, and green against a stark white ground creates a visual tension that is both balanced and precise. Bill's approach to painting was often described as an extension of his work in sculpture and typography, where the goal was to create objects that possess their own reality. This print captures the clean lines and the deliberate, calculated placement of colour that defined his career, offering a clear example of the mid-century European approach to non-objective art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/composition-sophie-taeuber-arp\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eComposition by Sophie Taeuber-Arp\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/rhythmische-teilung-richard-paul-lohse\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRhythmische Teilung by Richard Paul Lohse\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Max Bill","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139040674127,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139044835663,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59139044868431,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139044901199,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139044933967,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139044966735,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139044999503,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139045032271,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139045065039,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59139045097807,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59139045130575,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59139045163343,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/1-2-3-4-in-weiss_Poster_CompositorV1_1792121634628.jpg?v=1792205005","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/1-2-3-4-in-weiss-max-bill","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
