A Swiss artist, designer, and dancer, Sophie Taeuber-Arp was a pioneering figure of geometric abstraction and one of the few women at the center of the Dada and Constructivist movements. Trained in applied arts, she worked across painting, textiles, sculpture, and architecture, creating precise, rhythmic compositions that balanced order and playfulness. Her work embodied the ideal of integrating art into everyday life, and her innovative approach helped shape modern design and the evolution of abstract art in the twentieth century.
