The “Power of Geometry” project is a unique artwork initiative that aims to showcase the profound connection between math and fine arts. Inspired by the postulates and rules of geometry developed by famous mathematicians throughout history, this project invites artists to create stunning artworks that embody the beauty and complexity of these concepts.
Through a combination of visual art and mathematics, the “Power of Geometry” project seeks to highlight the fundamental role of geometry in our daily lives and showcase the creative possibilities that arise from the intersection of these two activities. From the symmetrical beauty of tessellations to the intricate patterns of fractals, each artwork in this project is a celebration of the power and elegance of mathematical concepts.
The “Power of Geometry” project offers a unique opportunity for the audience to explore the fascinating world of math and geometry through the lens of fine arts, also engaging in a new way with these ideas. Whether you’re a math enthusiast, an art lover, or simply curious about the connections between the two, the “Power of Geometry” project is a must-see experience that celebrates the beauty and creativity of both math and art.
Hilbert’s Twenty-First Problem

Price: 3.294 EUR • sold
The parallel postulate, which is related to Hilbert’s 21st problem, is often used in the study of triangles to prove results such as the sum of the interior angles of a triangle.
Galois Automorphism

In geometry, this is a type of bijective map that preserves the algebraic structure of a field. Here is the process observed through the movement of triangles in parallel planes. Galois automorphisms are important in Galois theory, which is a branch of algebra that examines the relationship between field extensions and groups.

Euler’s inequality is a fundamental result in geometry that applies to triangles where the sum of the squares of the lengths of the sides of a triangle is greater than or equal to four times the square root of three times the area of the triangle.
According to Poncelet’s porism, if two triangles are such that each has an incircle that is tangent to all three sides of the triangle, then any circle that is tangent to one of the triangles’ incircles is also tangent to the other triangle’s incircle.
These works are a part of the math-art project “The Power of a Triangle”. The triangle is the only plane figure described by a finite number of straight-line segments where all dots are directly connected. Out of all polygons, only a triangle is always rigid.
Pi Planet

Price: 3.148 EUR • sold
π (~3.14) is the number you get when you divide the distance around a circle by the distance across the circle through its center, used in a variety of mathematical and scientific applications, including geometry, trigonometry, calculus, physics, and statistics.
