"Physics and Art" by Harsh Mathur (Physics Colloquium Series)

Abstract: Physics and art have many unexpected connections. In this talk I will explore (1) the use of the principles of solid state crystallography in medieval and modern art, (2) the use of radiocarbon dating in art history, and (3) what the paintings of Jackson Pollock can teach us about fractal mathematics.

Harsh Mathur is an associate professor of physics at Case Western Reserve University.

Reception to follow.

Location: Franklin Miller Jr. Lecture Hall (RBH 109)

Sponsor: Department of Physics
