‘The Intimate Interplay of Mathematics and Art’ will be on display in the Koussevitzky Arts Gallery at Berkshire Community College, from now through Friday, April 24.
Pau Atela, professor of Mathematics at Smith College states “This exhibition reflects part of my longstanding research and personal interest in form and looking. It contains a small selection of objects and images, resulting from years of distilling ideas, impressions and reactions.
Most of these works are rendered in collaboration with students [from Smith College] through an experimental course called “Mathematical Sculptures,” which emphasizes creative process. In mathematics I constantly think about ideas, perception and form, but more important to me is that the experience and re-experience of this work makes me alive.”
Atela will discuss the exhibit Thursday, April 9, at 12:15 in K-111 located across from the art gallery in the Koussevitzky Arts Center. Forum credit is available for BCC students attending this gallery talk.
The exhibit is free and open to the public. The gallery is located in BCC’s Koussevitzky Arts Center. Gallery hours are from 9 to 5, Monday through Friday.
