Artwork Details: Artist: After Sophie Taeuber-Arp (1889–1943) Title: Composition verticale-horizontale sur fond blanc (Vertical-Horizontal Composition on White Ground) Medium: Lithograph and pochoir on velin paper Dimensions: 9.75 x 12.5 inches (24.77 x 31.75 cm) Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered as issued Date: 1956 Publisher: Societe Internationale dArt XXe Siecle, Paris, under the direction of Gualtieri di San Lazzaro, editeur, Paris Printer: Atelier Daniel Jacomet et Cie, Paris Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Provenance: From the album XXe Siecle, Nouvelle serie N°7 (double), Juin 1956, published by Societe Internationale dArt XXe Siecle, Paris; printed by Atelier Daniel Jacomet et Cie, Paris, 1956 About the Publication: Gualtieri di San Lazzaros XXe Siecle (Twentieth Century) was one of the most influential art journals of the modern era, founded in Paris in 1938 to unite the greatest painters, sculptors, and writers of the 20th century. San Lazzaro, a visionary editor and champion of modernism, believed deeply in the synthesis of art and literature, creating a publication that served as both a scholarly platform and a collectors object. Across its many issues, XXe Siecle featured original lithographs, pochoirs, linocuts, and wood engravings by leading modern masters including Picasso, Matisse, Chagall, Miro, Braque, Leger, Kandinsky, and Calder, printed by premier ateliers such as Mourlot, Atelier Jacomet, and Lacouriere. The double issues of the 1950s reflect a flourishing period of postwar abstraction, sculpture, and avant garde experimentation. Today, XXe Siecle remains an essential reference point in 20th century art history, prized by collectors, museums, and scholars worldwide. About the Artist: Sophie Taeuber-Arp (1889–1943) was a visionary Swiss artist, designer, and pioneering modernist whose groundbreaking fusion of geometric abstraction, textile mastery, avant-garde performance, and architectural innovation established her as one of the most transformative figures of the 20th century, working within a vibrant artistic milieu shaped by Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray; a central force in Zurich Dada alongside Hans Arp, Tristan Tzara, Hugo Ball, and Marcel Janco, she later played a pivotal role in Constructivism, the Abstraction-Creation group, and early Concrete Art, developing a rigorously structured geometric vocabulary that bridged fine art and applied art through abstract embroideries, textiles, marionettes, stained glass, furniture, and architectural design; admired by contemporaries such as Theo van Doesburg, Piet Mondrian, Sonia Delaunay, and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, and influential to later artists like Carmen Herrera, Bridget Riley, Sarah Morris, Tomma Abts, Jessica Stockholder, and Julie Mehretu, her work is represented in major institutions including MoMA, the Guggenheim Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Tate, Centre Pompidou, Kunstmuseum Basel, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art; her market significance was affirmed when her artwork Komposition (1930) achieved her highest recorded auction result of 6,697,150 USD at Christies New York on November 15, 2022.
