Blubt of the book by Snezana Lawrence about mathematical beauty
Mathematics is art – created not with colours or forms, but through abstract thought. This is the central idea behind Art of Mathematics by acclaimed author Snezana Lawrence.
In this work, she explores the history of mathematics through themes such as the elements, ratio, and dimensionality, highlighting the inherent beauty of the discipline. Along the way, she presents a rich selection of artworks inspired by mathematical ideas. Through this approach, Lawrence reveals what mathematical beauty truly is: the ability to trace a thread through history that weaves together the stories of people and cultures around a single, original abstract concept.
Snezana Lawrence was born in fomer Yogoslavia and works as a senior lecturer at Middlesex University, London, and was the chair of the History and Pedagogy of Mathematics International Study Group between 2020 and 2024. She is the author of The New Year’s Present from a Mathematician and editor of Mathematicians and Their Gods.
