Produktbeschreibung

Mathematics reveal the hidden patterns that help us to understand the world around us. To what extent are these principles – which are based on logic, data, measurements and observations and are thus foreign to the human body – capable of evoking emotional responses? Mathematician and philosopher Jean Paul Van Bendegem addresses this question in his essay on Antony Gormley’s exhibition ‘according to a given mean’. Henry Moore’s daughter, Mary Moore, discusses geometry with Gormley and analyses its importance as a starting point for an investigation of space, place and reflexive architecture.
