Math is beautiful at Gallery North
Gallery North’s latest exhibit, The Art of Math, features works inspired by mathematics. From 3D printing, to sculpture, to painting and drawing, the artworks on display will showcase a variety of styles that explore new conceptual depths. The result is bold, bright, complex, angular and intricate works inspired by a logical system that is both aesthetically and intellectually intriguing, pushing the viewer to contemplate their own understanding of what math is and can be.
Participating artists include Erik and Martin Demaine, William Duffy, Elaine Ellison, George Hart, Margaret Kepner, Gabriele Meyer, Istvan Orosz and Phil Webster. The exhibit will run from Aug. 28 to Sept. 25 with an artist reception on Aug. 28 from 5 to 7 p.m.
The exhibit is possible thanks to the involvement of George Hart, interdisciplinary sculptor, mathematician, computer scientist and research professor at Stony Brook University.
To kick off the exhibit, Hart led an interactive sculpture building workshop at the gallery for children and adults on Aug. 25.
