Introduction

Tauba Auerbach studies structure and connectivity on the microscopic to the cosmic scale. Building on crafts in many disciplines, they often invent tools and techniques to induce or exaggerate material behaviors. Their work moves freely between painting, weaving, glass, photography, video, calligraphy and musical instrument design. In 2013, Tauba started Diagonal Press, to hold their ongoing typography and book-making practice.
