Tauba Auerbach

Tauba Auerbach is an artist and publisher working in New York. A life-long student of math and physics, their work contends with structure and connectivity on the microscopic to the universal scale. Auerbach often invents tools and techniques for inducing material behaviors, building on crafts in many traditions. The artist’s hand is recognizable in work across painting, weaving, glass sculpture, photography, video, typography and musical instrument design. In 2013, Auerbach founded Diagonal Press to formalize and challenge their ongoing book design and publishing practice.

Auerbach’s work is included in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, The Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art and the Centre Pompidou among others. The artist is represented by Paula Cooper Gallery, New York, and STANDARD (Oslo), Norway. Their first museum survey, S v Z, will open at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2021.
