The Stiftung Arp e.V. is delighted to contribute on the catalogue raisonné project of Swiss artist Sophie Taeuber-Arp, which will not only provide a comprehensive overview of her cross-media Oeuvre, but also present new research findings.
In cooperation with the Fondazione Marguerite Arp in Locarno-Solduno (Switzerland), the Fondation Arp in Clamart (France) and the Stiftung Arp e. V. Berlin/Rolandswerth (Germany), SIK-ISEA is launching a new catalogue raisonné project dedicated to the extraordinarily diverse and extensive oeuvre of this exceptional artist. The project will also be supported by Walburga Krupp, a proven specialist, as an external expert. The project will result in a printed catalogue raisonné of Taeuber-Arp’s complete oeuvre as well as in a freely accessible digital version, both in English.

ONDERZOEK | In 2023 ontvingen tien musea wereldwijd elk een bijzondere schenking van werken uit de nalatenschap van de Frans-Duitse kunstenaar Hans Arp (1886-1966). Museum Beelden aan Zee kreeg van de Stiftung Hans Arp und Sophie Taeuber-Arp in Berlijn 21 gipsen beelden en één bronzen sculptuur, die enkele maanden in het museum werden tentoongesteld.
Met steun van de Vereniging Rembrandt (mede dankzij haar Fonds voor Onderzoek naar Moderne en Hedendaagse kunst) doet kunsthistoricus Louise Bjeldbak Henriksen diepgaand onderzoek naar deze werken. Dit meerjarige onderzoeksproject wordt in 2027 afgerond met een speciale solotentoonstelling in de grote zaal van museum Beelden aan Zee, en een uitgebreide tentoonstellingscatalogus dat alle bevindingen zal bundelen.

[EN] In 2023, ten museums around the world each received a special gift of works from the estate of the Franco-German artist Hans Arp (1886–1966). Museum Beelden aan Zee was granted 21 plaster sculptures and one bronze by the Stiftung Hans Arp und Sophie Taeuber-Arp in Berlin. These works were on display at the museum for several months.
With support from the Rembrandt Association (specifically through its Fund for Research into Modern and Contemporary Art), art historian Louise Bjeldbak Henriksen is conducting in-depth research on this collection. This multi-year research project will culminate in 2027 with a dedicated solo exhibition in the museum’s main gallery, accompanied by a comprehensive exhibition catalogue presenting all findings.

In 1928, Sophie Taeuber-Arp worked on the murals for the vestibule and the staircase in Dr. Heimendinger‘s house in Strasbourg, but over the years they have been whitewashed over. However, some of her murals are currently being restored. The will be brought back to light in the coming years.

Congratulation to our 2025 ARP Fellows: art historian Noemi Scherrer and artist Jackie Grassmann.
Grassmann explores the themes of collectivity, text, and resistance in Sophie Taeuber-Arp‘s role as editor of the journal ‚plastique‘.
Scherrer‘s aim is to examine the relationship between abstraction, social community, and the performance of female subjectivity.
