Sophie Taeuber-Arp was a quiet innovator whose fame has too often been yoked to that of her husband, Jean Arp.
Her singular artwork incorporated painting, sculpture, dance, fiber arts, and architecture, as hers was on.
The Swiss-born Taeuber-Arp had a front row seat to the first wave of Dadaism and was, along with Mondrian and Malevich, a pioneer of Constructivism.
Over time, however, she has slowly come to be seen as one of the foremost abstract artists and designers of the twentieth century.
