Swiss artist Sophie Taeuber-Arp (1889–1943) ranks among the pioneers of the early twentieth century’s classical avant-garde. Accompanying a retrospective exhibition at Aargauer Kunsthaus in Switzerland and Kunsthalle Bielefeld in Germany, this book showcases the remarkable diversity of Taeuber-Arp’s output, which included applied and fine art, dance, architecture, interior design, and teaching. With an impressive selection of works drawn from private collections and institutions alongside essays from leading scholars, this book is the most comprehensive overview of Taeuber-Arp's work to be published in English.

With essays by Mit Beiträgen von Rahel Beyerle, Sarah Burkhalter, Medea Hoch, Jutta Hülsewig-Johnen, Walburga Krupp, Brigitte Maier, Sigrid Schade, Thomas Schmutz, Maike Steinkamp, and Rudolf Suter.
