	Title:	Description:	Subject:

1.	Dragonflies Three Fold, by George Hart	As a sculptor of constructive geometric forms, my work deals with patterns and relationships derived from classical ideals of balance and symmetry. Mathematical yet organic, these abstract forms invite...	Wooden sculpture;

2.	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;

3.	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;

4.	Dragonflies Four Fold, by George Hart	As a sculptor of constructive geometric forms, my work deals with patterns and relationships derived from classical ideals of balance and symmetry. Mathematical yet organic, these abstract forms invite...	Wood sculpture;

6.	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;

7.	Extended Vision, by Anna Campbell Bliss	Extended Vision is a response to a nation-wide call for art for a “house of mathematics.” These three panels are part of a multi-faceted work of 100 panels extending throughout the mathematics building...	Screen process printing; Mathematics in art;

8.	Extended Vision - Harmonic Growth, by Anna Campbell Bliss	Extended Vision is a response to a nation-wide call for art for a “house of mathematics.” These three panels are part of a multi-faceted work of 100 panels extending throughout the mathematics building...	Screen process printing; Mathematics in art;

9.	The Rose, by Laurett Martin	Smaller pieces combine to make up the whole. Just as these smaller pieces of the rose make up the big rose so do smaller parts of an individual’s life make up the whole individual.	Roses in art; Collage; Photograph; Roses--Pictorial works;

10.	Untitled, by Rhett H. Ashby	As I paint, I recall memories form my youth, visiting relatives and playing in barns and old houses. I enjoy the history of old houses in the rural west and researching the history of those who lived there....	Paintings; Landscape painting;

11.	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);

12.	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;

13.	The Inventor, by Peter Livingston Myer	In the initial compositional design for the painting “the Inventor” I was aware and consciously utilized two mathematical principles. First was the division of thirds both horizontally and vertically...	Painting; Mathematics in art;

14.	Ruth May Fox, by David Grant Dean	A first century Roman writer and architect, Marcus Vitruvius Pollio, recommended that if the temples were to be magnificent, they should be constructed after the order of a well-shaped human body. He thought...	Painting; Mathematics in art;

15.	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;

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.	Rhombic Triacontahedron III, by Vladimir Bulatov	A stellation of a rhombic triacontahedron with 30 identical rhombic faces makes the base for this sculpture. All internal intersections of rhombic faces were carefully eliminated by cutting away parts...	Metal sculpture; Geometry in art;

18.	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;

19.
