Man Ray and the shakespearian equations
- Language talk: English
Man Ray proved that science and art are connected in unexpected ways. The French surrealistic photographer was inspired by mathematical models, which led him to create one of the most iconic series of paintings of the 1930s: The Shakespearian Equations. Using Man Ray’s magnum opus, we can see how the beauty of mathematics transcends simple number games.
