  • Beaded bags, embroidered cushion covers, puppets, stained-glass windows, paintings on canvas-Sophie Taeuber-Arp’s short but vibrant career spanned such a broad range of creative disciplines that it remains difficult to define her as an artist. In this video, senior curator Anne Umland, organizer of the exhibition "Sophie Taeuber-Arp: Living Abstraction", guides us through Taeuber-Arp’s multifaceted work, revealing a shapeshifting artist whose language of abstraction defied categorization.

    The exhibition looks delightful, and I'm grateful to see it introduced by one of the most infectious, intelligent, and articulate curators ever to appear on CZcams.

    Anne talking about Sophie's works in an articulate manner shows how she (Anne) is passionate on her work too. I like the way she converses to the camera to tell us about Sophie.

    I remember running into her work for the first time looking at a survey of Dada works years ago that included her puppets, but it's amazing to have gotten the chance to see a full show dedicated to her work. You can really see her legacy in places like the Bauhaus School/Black Mountain College, and more generally in Abstract Modernism/Minimalism even up into contemporary design for web.

    Beautiful work, and so sad about her early tragic death. I wonder what directions her art may have taken her, had she lived longer. I find her work engaging, and Im always asking for more.

    That was a lovely talk about an artist whom I wasn't previously familiar with except in the most tangential way as part of Dada, thank you for making me look again at her work but with much with closer attention and far more interest; a rewarding and useful exercise.

    I did not know about this wonderful artist and will try to see the exhibit next time I am in New York. I love what she said about playing with the square. I have been choreographing squares and Golden Rectangles for many years and have come to realize that "a square is made up of Golden Rectangles and a Golden Rectangle is made up of squares..."

    @sylviapaints Před 2 lety +2

    Seeing how her art became so much less geometric and more organic when they had to flee their home is so interesting!
    It makes me wonder if that was symbolic of her FINDING a certain peace while needing to be fluid and free moving within the chaos or if that was symbolic of her LOSING peace without the structure of her previous life….🤔

    The art is really lovely, and it’s a thrill to see as I’ve never heard of the artist before, but the curator, my, she is absolutely delightful. It’d be all too easy to make such an abstract exhibit inaccessible and stuffy, but this curator is just so lightheartedly enamored by the exhibit’s pieces that I can’t help but be swept into her enjoyment.

    How do you use a wood stove and not realize that the flue is not open. I have lived in many homes with fireplaces' and the first thing that happens when you start a fire without the flue being open is the room immediately fills with smoke.
