This is a list of artists who actively explored mathematics in their artworks. [3] Art forms practised by these artists include painting, sculpture, architecture, textiles and origami. Some artists such as Piero della Francesca and Luca Pacioli went so far as to write books on mathematics in art.
The Math Images Project is a wiki collaboration between Swarthmore College, the Math Forum at Drexel University, and the National Science Digital Library. The project aims to introduce the public to mathematics through beautiful and intriguing images found throughout the fields of math. The Math Images Project runs on MediaWiki software, as ...
Examples of computer clip art, from Openclipart. Clip art (also clipart, clip-art) is a type of graphic art.Pieces are pre-made images used to illustrate any medium. Today, clip art is used extensively and comes in many forms, both electronic and printed.
Wynne is a professor of photography at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City.She came to this project through an acquaintance with mathematicians Amie Wilkinson and Benson Farb, neighbors of hers in Cape Cod, and through a trip to India from which she brought back a set of photographs she had taken of school chalkboards in Jaipur.
The art critic Gladys Fabre observes that two progressions are at work in the painting, namely the growing black squares and the alternating backgrounds. [133] The mathematics of tessellation, polyhedra, shaping of space, and self-reference provided the graphic artist M. C. Escher (1898—1972) with a lifetime's worth of materials for his woodcuts.
Unfinished Painting is a 1989 painting by American artist Keith Haring. It is a 100 cm by 100 cm acrylic painting on canvas piece, recognizable by the large swath of canvas left exposed.

An illustration from Jouffret's Traité élémentaire de géométrie à quatre dimensions.The book, which influenced Picasso, was given to him by Princet. New possibilities opened up by the concept of four-dimensional space (and difficulties involved in trying to visualize it) helped inspire many modern artists in the first half of the twentieth century.
