Bildsäulen-Dreiergruppe, Architectural sculpture at Mercedes-Benz Museum, Stuttgart, Germany.
Three steel and enamel pillars rise 32 meters into the sky, each displaying distinct color patterns that shift in a counterclockwise sequence.
Swiss architect Max Bill designed and installed this geometric structure in 1989 as part of the Mercedes-Benz Art Collection.
The layout of the three columns forms a reference to the Mercedes star, connecting industrial design with mathematical color progression principles.
Visitors can examine the changing color patterns of the pillars by walking around the sculpture near the Mercedes-Benz Museum entrance.
The pillars feature nine-part color wheels incorporating yellow, red, and blue with intermediate tones separated by metallic steel bands.
