Mathematical art talk

Guided Tour / Talk: Mathematical art talk

Wed 02., Wed 09., Wed 23. & Wed 30.04., Wed 07.05., 10h

From March to the end of May 2025, we are inviting students to take part in mathematical art talks in the exhibition Radical Software: Women, Art & Computing 1960–1991. The first survey to study the history of digital art from a feminist perspective, focuses on women who worked with computers as a tool or subject and artists who worked in an inherently computational way. Comprising more than one hundred works by fifty artists from fourteen countries, the exhibition includes painting, sculpture, installation, film, performance and many computer-generated drawings and texts created in the pre-internet era.

Together with a maths professor, an art educator and the pupils, we will make interdisciplinary connections and discuss how many mathematical aspects there are in the works on display. After the workshop, there will be an opportunity to extend the visit to the exhibition depending on your personal interests.
