Beschreibung
An absorbing study of Swiss artist Sophie Taeuber-Arp's influential work, looking in depth at the role of the curve in the artist's formal lexicon.

Edited and introduced by Briony Fer, Sophie Taeuber-Arp: la règle des courbes / The Rule of Curves examines the work of leading twentieth-century artist Sophie Taeuber-Arp, whose pioneering, multifaceted work challenged traditional hierarchies and conventional binary oppositions, and asserted art's urgent relevance to daily life. This bilingual, clothbound volume focuses on the formal logic that drove her bold and wide-ranging creative production while revealing how moving and working between mediums simultaneously expanded and crystallized her aesthetic. Alongside Fer's new critical insights into Taeuber-Arp's work, an essay by Jenny Nachtigall explores the artist's "environments" and how notions of gravity, motion, and the cinematic offer keys to understanding the artist's kinaesthetic sensibility.
