CRC Press Geometry for the Artist - AK Peters Mathematics Book

Geometry for the Artist offers a unique look at the connection between mathematical principles and visual creativity. Based on a long-running course at Maharishi International University, this book serves a dual purpose. It provides artists with the tools to use geometry more effectively in their work and offers mathematicians a way to see how math applies to real-world art. Readers will explore a wide range of mathematical concepts including perspective, symmetry, topology, fractals, curves, and surfaces. The text uses a practical approach by analyzing actual art through a geometric lens. This helps you see exactly how these concepts appear in creative works. To help you apply what you learn, the book includes exercises designed to help you experiment with these mathematical ideas in your own artistic practice.
