The School of Art presents “BEAUTIFUL DATA: Technology and the Creative Process”

"Beautiful Data" has been curated in support of this year's inauguration of the iPad initiative in the School of Art, the only materials requirement for students in two-dimensional composition classes. This exhibition provides examples of people who use math, science and technology in an artistic way.

This exhibition features the work of Jerry Birchfield, Bruce Checefsky, Ellen Hoverkamp, Fathom and Form, Nathan Selikoff, Nicholeen Viall, Elizabeth Whiteley and Ye Zhao. This group of scientists and artists are using math, science and technology to create results that are visually interesting. In some cases the original intention was not artistic, but the result is visually intriguing.

These individuals and their research have been chosen for this exhibition to inspire imaginations and encourage our students, and all of us, to be open to visual expressions originating beyond the artist's studio.
