Abstract
Sonia Delaunay-Terk (née Sarah Stern, 1885–1979) and Sophie Taeuber (née Sophie Henriette Gertrud Taeuber, 1889–1943) developed extraordinary careers in the arts while navigating two world wars, a changing socio-cultural landscape for women and women artists, and personal triumphs and hardships. The encroaching fronts of both world wars—and, in Delaunay-Terk’s case, the threat of deportation by the Nazis during the Second World War—forced both women to flee their homes, twice. Along with the devastation wrought by war, traditional notions of mind and body were upended and gender roles reconfigured during the first half of the twentieth century, when both women were making art. Over the course of their careers, and while negotiating these crises, both women pushed against stereotypes of the female artist and produced art that questioned the objectification of their (dancing) bodies.
