Sophie Taeuber-Arp Biography

(b Davos, 19 Jan 1889; d Zurich, 13 Jan 1943). Swiss painter, sculptor and designer. She studied textile techniques at the Ecole des Arts Appliqués in St Gall from 1908 to 1910 and then in Hamburg at the Kunstgewerbeschule in 1912. Her career began in the centre of Dada activity in Zurich between 1915 and 1920. Although she did not date her work until the last two years of her life, its chronology was reconstructed by Hugo Weber from the testimony of her husband, HANS ARP, and from internal evidence.
