Nancy Baker returns for the second part of this series [you are welcome to attend even if you were unable to attend the first part of the series.] The English philosopher and mathematician Alfed North Whitehead said 'Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.' This two part series will look at some of the patterns we enjoy in art and language. We will explore all kinds of patterning, from the symmetry and the impossible of M.C. Escher to the scrolling vegetal decoration of Islamic art to the bold dynamics of abstract expressionism and color field painting.
