Mathematics and sculpture
I have felt for along time that sculpture resembled to mathematics.
On august 2017 I went to the National New Art Centre to see the exhibition Alberto Giacometti.
At that time I felt sculpture and mathematics' resemblance for having a total image to the object.
Giacometti made Bust of Diego in 1954, that many people admit one of master pieces of Giacometti.
It is true and furthermore it hints me mathematical approach to the agenda on language using fine theorems historically made by the pioneers of modern mathematics.
Why ?
A theorem has a vast history to resolve hard problems, which shows omnidirectional ways to the top named theorem.
Sculpture also shows the similar way to the top named real existence of human activity.
So I like walk around a sculpture to recognize the unseen roads to the top named thought of a artist alike mathematician's approach.
I love the chair in front of a sculpture to see a rather long time to think of artist's long way to a piece of work.
At this exhibition I was interested in small figures made about 1946.
Why he produced such works. More and more small to 1 cm, all of which were entered to a match box.
They may be the starting points to the big notions or work in the future, being familiar to the afar resolve of question of mathematical agenda.
