Bridges Conference for Mathematics, Art, Music, Architecture, Culture 2020

Sep 14, 2020 - Sep 17, 2020
online

The minisymposium “Mathematics and Arts” will be part of the annual meeting of the German Mathematical Society in Chemnitz, Germany online, 14.-17. September 2020. It aims to bring together researchers interested in the connection and collaboration of mathematics and arts.

Update: Due to the situation concerning the spread of Covid-19 and current travel restrictions, the presentations will be given via Zoom (or similar).

We are looking for presentations of artistic works and concepts that include a mathematical component and put a focus on the imparting of this underlying mathematics. The utilized format or media can be very diverse. For example, the discussed work could be a short movie on soap films, a construction manual for Archimedean solids, or a lesson plan for teaching mathematics in the art of M.C. Escher.
