1.	Silenced Serenade, by David Grant Dean	While mathematics is precise and art and music come to be through creative force, precision is most important in the birth of both classical music and classical art. In fact in the very design of the violin...	Painting; Mathematics in art; Golden section;

2.	Blow…Make a Wish, by Tammy Ballard	When I was a little girl, I believed that if I blew the seeds of a dandelion into the air and made a wish that somehow magically those seeds and my dreams could come true. Of course with maturity I understood...	Metal sculpture; Geometry in art;

3.	Sculpture, untitled, by Avard T. Fairbanks	Untitled sculpture by Avard Fairbanks, showing the torso of a man.	Art; Sculpture

4.	Toward Thebes, by Wulf Erich Barsh	Toward Thebes is an abstract painting which, according to Dr. Vern G, Swanson, is based on the theme of Life in this mortal estate, in which, as the Apostle Paul says, “We see through a glass darkly“...	Painting; Thebes (Egypt : Extinct city);

5.	Pentagonal Hexecontahedron, by Vladimir Bulatov	This sculpture is based on a polyhedron which belongs to the family of standard Pentagonal Hexecontahedron (PH) PH is the polyhedron dual to the snub dodecahedron. It has 60 irregular pentagonal faces...	Wood sculpture; Polyhedra in art;

6.	Lily, by Cassidy Tuttle	This photograph shows the beauty of Fibonacci's numbers. I was always intrigued by this idea and have come to appreciate the beauty that these numbers create. Fibonacci developed a system of numbering...	Digital photographs; Water lilies; Fibonacci's numbers;

7.	Rhombic Triacontahedron, by Vladimir Bulatov	This is stellations of a rhombic triacontahedron. Usually one considers polyhedra stellations with the same rotational symmetry as the base solid. In this case it would be rotational symmetry of an icosahedron....	Wood sculpture; Polyhedra in art;

8.	Owl, by Ian Stepp	This is one of two works which were made to study the golden section. Both pieces are focused on finding a proportional spiral-- Lines showing the marks that it took to find a "square spiral" in color...	Art; Golden section; Mathematics in art;

9.	Lines, by Ian Stepp	This is one of two works which were made to study the golden section. Both pieces are focused on finding a proportional spiral-- Lines showing the marks that it took to find a "square spiral" in color...	Art; Golden section; Mathematics in art;

10.	Fractal Tree No.3, by Robert Fathauer	This is a series of black-and-white digital artwork constructed by graphically iterating an arrangement of a small portion of a photograph of a tree, or a bush in the case of No. 4. The original photograph...	Digital art; Mathematics in art;

11.	Fractal Tree No.5, by Robert Fathauer	This is a series of black-and-white digital artwork constructed by graphically iterating an arrangement of a small portion of a photograph of a tree, or a bush in the case of No. 4. The original photograph...	Digital art; Mathematics in art;

12.	Fractal Tree No.4, by Robert Fathauer	This is a series of black-and-white digital artwork constructed by graphically iterating an arrangement of a small portion of a photograph of a tree, or a bush in the case of No. 4. The original photograph...	Digital art; Mathematics in art;

13.	Fractal Tree No.2, by Robert Fathauer	This is a series of black-and-white digital artwork constructed by graphically iterating an arrangement of a small portion of a photograph of a tree, or a bush in the case of No. 4. The original photograph...	Digital art; Mathematics in art;

14.	Black and Blue Ricochet Composition, by Gary Greenfield	This black and blue ricochet composition was generated by placing particles on each of the sides of a 16-gon, assigning them starting angles, and then letting each move in a straight line until it encounters...	Digital art; Mathematics in art;

15.	Aaron Studying Calculus, by Daniel J. Fairbanks	The subject of this drawing is the artist’s son, Aaron, working on his calculus homework. Aaron is a student at UVU.	Chalk drawings;

16.	Rhombic Triacontahedron IV, by Vladimir Bulatov	The sculpture is based on rhombic triacontahedron (RTC), which is a convex polyhedron with 30 rhombic faces. It has full symmetry of an icosahedron. One of the stellations of RTC consists of 30 intersecting...	Metal sculpture; Geometry in art;

17.	Warp Weft, by Roland Thompson	The painting was made first then stretched over a pentagon shaped stretcher. The painting operations are: repetition of line with geometric increase of the spacing between the lines, and anomaly. This...	Art; Geometry in art;

18.	Pipeline, by Roland Thompson	The operations of this work are simple: proportion, counting, anomaly, and containment. The figure defines the format, the middle of the painting is cut out. My work is a search for enrichment through...	Art; Mathematics in art;

19.	Five Tetrahedra, by Vladimir Bulatov	The icosahedral symmetry group has 60 elements – rotations about axes of order 2, 3 and 5. It has a subgroup of index 5 – the group of rotational symmetries of the tetrahedron with 12 elements given...	Metal sculpture; Icosahedra; Tetrahedra;

20.	Golden Spiral, by Jennifer Regan Bown	The Greeks believed there to be three 'ingredients' to beauty: symmetry, proportion, and harmony. This perfect balance was dubbed the "Golden Mean". This perfect balance is something they aspired to in...	Spirals in art; Golden section; Mathematics in art;
