INTD 237 - Mathematical Methods in Studio Art

There are a multitude of ways in which artists rely on math and in which mathematicians turn to visual models of their problems. In this course students will use methods and techniques specific to the creation of 2-dimensional works of art as a platform for experimentation, implementation and/or demonstration of mathematical methods and concepts. Through lectures (both mathematical and art historical), problem sets, computer labs with 3D graphing software, art demonstrations, studio explorations and visual critiques, students will learn to apply their mathematical knowledge to the creation of works of art.
