GEOM ART RY - Ralph Martel
http://mathforum.org/te/exchange/hosted/martel/
Professor Martel, City University of New York, College of
Staten Island and a resident of Westbeth, addresses the
question of whether a painting must have an order within its
two-dimensional design. His paper argues that "there is in
fact a geometrical order to painting, regardless of the
particular form of expression. There is a deep structure that
unites visual elements in a painting; one need only ask the
right visual questions."
PowerPoint presentations accompany the paper.
- St. John Eats the Scroll
- The Four Riders of the Apocalypse
- The Sea Monster and the Beast with Lamb's Horns
