Indicative of the artist?s pursuit to break down the conventional boundaries between the applied and fine arts, the work defies easy categorization. Its stylized features?a single eye, a long trapezoidal nose, delicately beaded ?earrings??hint at the artist?s interests in modernist abstraction and in the stuff of everyday life. A dancer, designer, puppet maker, sculptor and painter at the heart of the Zurich Dada movement, Taeuber-Arp made Head in the wake of World War I, during a time of profound political and cultural self-questioning. Almost a century later, her witty wooden figure has lost none of its punch as an investigation of art across aesthetic and material boundaries rather than within them. Curator Anne Umland?s essay positions this intriguingly anthropomorphic work within the broader arc of Taeuber-Arp?s remarkably vibrant and versatile career. 500 $a "Each volume in the One on One series is a sustained meditation on a single work from the collection of The Museum of Modern Art"--Front cover, inside flap. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 600 10 $a Taeuber-Arp, Sophie, $d 1889-1943. $t Head. 600 10 $a Taeuber-Arp, Sophie, $d 1889-1943 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Taeuber-Arp, Sophie, $d 1889-1943. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00084123 610 20 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021281 610 27 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00530348 650 0 $a Art $z New York. $z New York. 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 710 2 $a Museum of Modern Art (New York, N.Y.), $e issuing body. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021281 700 1 $a Taeuber-Arp, Sophie, $d 1889-1943, $e artist. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n81147240 830 0 $a 1 on one. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2012109489 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230418012644.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=985A5E48209B11EABA878C2E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
