Description

The artistic theory of "Konkrete Kunst", advocated by van Doesburg in 1939, developed by Max Bill in his many writings, is the one which can best help us not only in the appreciation of the true nature of this new artistic trend, but also in the formulation of the theory of modern design. When Bill points out that it is necessary to consider science (mathematics) under a new light, the problem of the relationship between art and science becomes a very important one. And here we can see that the concept of "Struktur" in modern physics and in modern art takes an important role. Only through such an approach, I think, we can formulate the theory of modern design.
