Geometry and Art [3/25/2009]

I'm a big fan of art that explores unusual topologies:

Peggy Wyman

Rebecca McEntee

Peggy Wiedemann

Charles O Perry


Carlo H. Séquin


I also like models of polyhedron and the like:

George W. Hart


Bathsheba Grossman



And hyperbolic planes:

Daina Taimina



I'm amazed by these tessellations expressed through origami:

Eric Gjerde




And the intersection between programming and origami:

Robert J Lang

For more on art, math, and origami, I highly recommend the documentary Between the Folds.
