As pioneers of abstract art Hans (Jean) Arp and Sophie Taeuber-Arp created a unique body of work. They met in Zurich in 1915 and never left each other's side, from drawing to construction, from textile to wall paintings. Sophie Taeuber-Arp and Hans (Jean) Arp gave rhythm to their lives, opening up geometric and organic abstraction to dance, decor, architecture, sculpture, and the applied arts.

Thanks to new research and sources, this publication follows in the couple's footsteps from their first encounter, to work made by Arp in remembrance of Taeuber-Arp following her sudden death.

The publication includes works of across a range of genres found in both artists' work, such as collage, design, drawing, and illustrated books, jewellery, painting, photography, reliefs, sculpture, and textiles--demonstrating the equal importance of applied and free art for both artists.
