Open-air cinema in the garden of the Mies van der Rohe House

We cordially invite you to the screening of the film MAX BILL – DAS ABSOLUTE AUGENMASS (German with English subtitles).


The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Erich Schmid and Angela Thomas Schmid (max bill georges vantongerloo foundation).


The film about Max Bill (1908–1994) sheds light on his life at the intersection of art, aesthetics, and politics. It opens up new perspectives on the Bauhaus student, artist, architect, and designer—especially as a committed left-wing intellectual whose attitude was inextricably linked to his work.

Thanks to close collaboration with Max Bill's widow Angela Thomas Schmid and numerous personal archive recordings, the film succeeds in creating a remarkably intimate portrait of an artist who stood up for his convictions throughout his life.
