Max BILL :: Endless Ribbon (1953) - http://pavlopoulos.wordpress.com/2011...
"In M.C. Escher’s engraving “Ants”, a procession of ants is presented performing a potentially perpetual march upon a Möbius-like strip, a one-sided surface produced by twisting and joining the ends of a strip or ribbon. In a number of other engravings, Escher toyed with infinity by employing several variations of the same idea, twisted ribbons implying an endless route. The German graphic artist Max Bill (1908-1994) was similarly inspired by this representation and in his aptly titled sculpture “Endless Ribbon” made an elegant comment on the twisted ribbon as a symbol of infinity." - Adriano
