A case in point is her oversize pop-up book titled <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/art\/more-art\/tauba-auerbach-2-3-geometric-pop-up-book\/id-a_5447351\/\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow\">[2, 3]<\/a><\/em>, published by Auerbach and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.printedmatter.org\/\">Printed Matter<\/a> in 2011, which features six die-cut paper shapes that unfold into intricate geometric sculptural forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, the artist reveals a place caught between two realities: the flat 2D world of a book in which destinations of the mind are unknown until the pages are explored, and the structural concreteness of a 3D form, which is often perceived as an absolute. Auerbach seizes upon the idea of ambiguity and shares it between the two orders, blurring the lines between \u201cbook and build\u201d to create her own shape-shifting story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/tauba-auerbach-1981-american\/art\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"477\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-4-950x477.jpg\" alt=\"[2,3], 2011, a pop-up book by Tauba Auerbach\" class=\"wp-image-367622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-4-950x477.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-4-697x350.jpg 697w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-4-120x60.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-4-768x386.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-4.jpg 1318w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Peter Kraus, founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/ursus-books-ltd\/\">Ursus Books<\/a> in Manhattan, describes Auerbach<meta charset=\"utf-8\">\u2019s <em>[2, 3]<\/em> as an interactive art piece that engages the imagination. \u201cMuch like artist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/olafur-eliasson\/\">Olafur Eliasson<\/a>\u2019s textless and laser-cut book, <em>Your House<\/em> (2006), you are able to engage with this piece in a totally unique way by unfolding the pages to create something magical,\u201d Kraus says. \u201cAuerbach\u2019s works can reach vast amounts at auction, so this is a more democratic way of investing in something very special by the artist.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/art\/more-art\/tauba-auerbach-2-3-geometric-pop-up-book\/id-a_5447351\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"634\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-1-950x634.jpg\" alt=\"[2,3], 2011, a pop-up book by Tauba Auerbach\" class=\"wp-image-367599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-1-950x634.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-1-525x350.jpg 525w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-1-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/TB-1.jpg 1318w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>An unusual chapter of nonfiction also features in the history of Auerbach<meta charset=\"utf-8\">\u2019s pop-up work of art: Most of the 1,000 published copies were destroyed when Hurricane Sandy\u2019s floodwaters overtook Printed Matter<meta charset=\"utf-8\">\u2019s basement in Manhattan, where the books were stored, making it an exceptional (and now even more rare) objet d\u2019art with a colorful backstory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Kraus, the book\u2019s real power lies in its disruption of conventions. \u201cOver the course of my 50-year career, one thing I have fought for is to get people to display books,\u201d he says. \u201cMost regard books as a spine on a shelf, so this volume represents a completely different way of engaging with such an object.
