1. 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...

2. 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...

3. 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...

4. 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...

5. 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...

6. 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...

7. Phiberspace, by Doug McKenna Phiberspace, by Doug McKenna Art; Rectangles in art; Spirals in art; Phiberspace is composed of over 42,000 copies, in various sizes, of a rectangle specially chosen and colored so that superpositions of them all lead the eye to see spirals upon spirals. The repeated rectangle...

8. Fractal Tree No.3, by Robert Fathauer Fractal Tree No.3, by Robert Fathauer Digital art; Mathematics in art; 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...

9. 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...

14. 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....

15. David, by Daniel J. Fairbanks David, by Daniel J. Fairbanks Charcoal drawings--American; Artists often use geometry to create a sense of three-dimensional depth in a two-dimensional drawing or painting, and to give the composition strength through geometric lines and forms. The trapezoidal...

16. 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...
