Neon lights installation in honour of Sophie Taeuber’s interior design work for L’Aubette 1928. The work is based on Taeuber’s drawing ‘Aubette 63’ – the first version of the interior design of the ‘Foyer-Bar’ at the Aubette, which was rejected by Theo van Doesburg because it was ‘too colourful’. The window is inspired by Taeuber’s stained glass design, which was co-designed by Hans Arp, but that is incorrectly attributed to Theo van Doesburg and Hans Arp.
