1. Black and Blue Ricochet Composition, by Gary Greenfield Black and Blue Ricochet Composition, by Gary Greenfield Digital art; Mathematics in art; 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...

2. Ruth May Fox, by David Grant Dean Ruth May Fox, by David Grant Dean Painting; Mathematics in art; 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...

3. Lily, by Cassidy Tuttle Lily, by Cassidy Tuttle Digital photographs; Water lilies; Fibonacci's numbers; 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...

4. Pipeline, by Roland Thompson Pipeline, by Roland Thompson Art; Mathematics in art; 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...

5. Warp Weft, by Roland Thompson Warp Weft, by Roland Thompson Art; Geometry in art; 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...

6. Rhombic Triacontahedron, by Vladimir Bulatov Rhombic Triacontahedron, by Vladimir Bulatov Wood sculpture; Polyhedra in art; 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....

7. Rhombic Triacontahedron IV, by Vladimir Bulatov Rhombic Triacontahedron IV, by Vladimir Bulatov Metal sculpture; Geometry in art; 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...

8. Boil, by Mark J. Stock Boil, by Mark J. Stock Digital art; Fluid dynamics--Computer programs; Boil is a digital image from a computer simulation of fluid flow. The surface in Boil is composed of a set of connected triangles, each of which is defined by the computer as a list of three nodes, and...

9. Golden Gnomon, by Doug McKenna Golden Gnomon, by Doug McKenna Art; Golden section; Fibonacci numbers; Golden Gnomon is a new, more accurately drawn version of a pen plotter drawing McKenna first made back in 1985. It is based on a non-periodic Ammann tiling, which is in turn based on even and odd powers...

10. The Inventor, by Peter Livingston Myer The Inventor, by Peter Livingston Myer Painting; Mathematics in art; 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...

11. Lines, by Ian Stepp Lines, by Ian Stepp Art; Golden section; Mathematics in art; 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...

12. Toward Thebes, by Wulf Erich Barsh Toward Thebes, by Wulf Erich Barsh Painting; Thebes (Egypt : Extinct city); 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“...

13. Owl, by Ian Stepp Owl, by Ian Stepp Art; Golden section; Mathematics in art; 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...

14. Young Navajo Woman, by James Gunter Young Navajo Woman, by James Gunter Art; Pastel drawing; I like the play of cool and warm tones off of each other and the play of darks and lights. The way some shapes in this profile echo each other were of particular interest in my chosen composition. Individuality...

15. Jessica Jean, by Peter Livingston Myer Jessica Jean, by Peter Livingston Myer Art; Pastel drawing; The first level of self-creation is your own image. You can create yourself physically and mentally. We have the power to change what we don’t like about ourselves and create a new self image. It is...

16. Silenced Serenade, by David Grant Dean Silenced Serenade, by David Grant Dean Painting; Mathematics in art; Golden section; 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...

17. Altar of Apollo, by Andrew Kosorok Altar of Apollo, by Andrew Kosorok Engraved glass; Glass sculpture; Legend reports that in BC 430, Delphi—home to Apollo’s Oracle—was threatened by a devastating plague. The people pled with the Oracle to tell them how to resist it, and she told them that the plague...

18. Golden Spiral, by Jennifer Regan Bown Golden Spiral, by Jennifer Regan Bown Spirals in art; Golden section; Mathematics in art; 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...

19. Five Tetrahedra, by Vladimir Bulatov Five Tetrahedra, by Vladimir Bulatov Metal sculpture; Icosahedra; Tetrahedra; 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...

20. Pentagonal Hexecontahedron, by Vladimir Bulatov Pentagonal Hexecontahedron, by Vladimir Bulatov Wood sculpture; Polyhedra in art; 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...
