The world of M. C. Escher
No full textIncludes several substantial text sections explaining Netherlander Maurits Cornelis Escher a bit - his original small following, the precision and mathematical study which made him a favorite with technical admirers, and his own motivations and feelings about his unique brand of fractal and illusion-oriented art are all discusse
A representação em perspectiva e as figuras impossíveis presentes nos trabalhos do artista gráfico maurits cornelis escher
No full textTCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências Físicas e Matemáticas, Curso de Matemática.O intuito deste trabalho é o resgate da Matemática como componente de representação pictural. A análise do uso da Matemática em obras de arte permite-nos ver a ligação entre Arte e as Ciências Exatas, visando o caráter interdisciplinar. Escher, o artista escolhido para análise neste trabalho, percebeu esta ligação e com maestria soube por em suas obras toda sutileza, encanto e fascínio que a Matemática pode oferecer àqueles que souberem apreciá-la
Reflejos de la Alhambra en el universo de Escher
No full textIl saggio, che appare nel catalogo della mostra citata dedicata a M. C. Escher, descrive la geometria sottesa al tema della divisione regolare del piano (euclideo o iperbolico), uno dei principali motivi ispiratori delle incisioni dell'artista olandese a partire dalla prima visita di Escher all'Alhambra di Granada
Els mons impossibles de M. C. Escher
No full textAquest article comença amb una breu introducció als conceptes de perspectiva, imatge ambigua i objecte impossible, que després es fan servir per analitzar tres de les obres de M. C. Escher que representen «mons impossibles»: Relativitat, Convex i Còncau i Cascada.This article begins with a brief introduction to the concepts of perspective, ambiguous image, and impossible object, which are then used to analyze three works by M.

Hyperbolic Geometry in M. C. Escher Artworks
No full textHyperbolic geometry has been used as the inspiration for many artworks, patterns, and buildings. Bold artists like M. C. Escher have created artworks on the hyperbolic plane. These artworks are unique and interesting due to their symmetric and repetitive nature, as well as their strong mathematical structure. We will provide an introduction to hyperbolic geometry and describe how these intricate artworks can be built from hyperbolic constructions. Also, an overview of the symmetric properties of M. C. Escher\u27s four hyperbolic circle limits will be given
M. C. Escher Calidociclos
No full textUn calidociclo es un objeto tridimensional construido con tetraedros (6, 8, 10 o cualquier otro número par superior) y tiene la curiosa propiedad de que se puede girar de dentro a fuera mediante un giro anular. Combinando su peculiar forma con algunas de las más bellas imágenes de M.C. Escher, los autores consiguieron ingeniosamente trasladar a la tridimensionalidad los maravillosos diseños de Escher
