Sophie Taeuber-Arp
Published to accompany the first retrospective of Sophie Taeuber-Arp's work in the United States in forty years, Sophie Taeuber-Arp : Living Abstraction presents a comprehensive survey of this multifaceted innovator's wide-ranging achievements and establishes unequivocally her place in the pantheon of twentieth-century abstract art. Taeuber-Arp's background in the applied arts and dance, her involvement in the Zurich Dada movement, and her projects for architectural spaces were essential to her development of a uniquely versatile and vibrant abstract vocabulary.
Through her artistic output and various professional alliances, Taeuber-Arp consistently challenged the historically constructed boundaries separating fine art from craft and design. This richly illustrated catalogue explores the artist's interdisciplinary and cross-pollinating approach to abstraction through some four hundred works, including textiles, beadwork, polychrome marionettes, architectural and interior designs, stained-glass windows, works on paper, paintings, and relief sculptures.
Fifteen essays examine the full sweep of Taeuber-Arp's career, tracing the progression of her creative practices both chronologically and thematically. A comprehensive chronology, scholarly checklist, and groundbreaking essay on the artist's materials and techniques further detail the expansive nature of Taeuber-Arp's artistic production.
