Math Art

<b>From geometry in motion to the possibilities of pi this stunning volume reveals how art has been inspired by the beauty and poetry of mathematical principles.</b> <p/> The worlds of visual art and mathematics come together in this spectacular volume by award-winning writer Stephen Ornes. He explores the growing sensation of math art presenting more than 80 pieces including a crocheted colorful representation of non-Euclidian geometry that looks like sea coral and a 65-ton 28-foot-tall bronze sculpture covered in a space-filling curve. For each work we get the artist's story followed by accessible and thought-provoking explanations of the mathematical concept and equations behind the art. <p/> From 3D-printed objects that give real form to abstract mathematical theories to mystic fractals to Andy Warhol as a solution to the Traveling Salesman Problem these artworks embody some of strangest most beautiful relationships among numbers and across dimensions.
