ESCHER - Optical Illusion
Welcome to the world of the famous Dutch Artist ESCHER
Music: Vangelis - Twilight. LINK: Youtube
MC Escher, Images of Mathematics...
Escher's work covered a variety of subjects throughout his life. His early love of portraits, Roman and Italian landscapes and of nature, eventually gave way to regular division of the plane.. Over 150 colorful and recognizable works testify to Escher's ingenuity and vision. He managed to capture the notion of hyperbolic space on a fixed 2-dimensional plane as well as translating the principles of regular division onto a number of 3-dimensional objects such as spheres, columns and cubes. A number of his prints combine both 2 and 3-dimensional images with startling effect.. His art continues to amaze and wonder millions of people all over the world. In his work we recognize his keen observation of the world around us and the expressions of his own fantasies. . M.C. Escher shows us that reality is wondrous, comprehensible and fascinating....

The knot of Escher
Painter and mathematician, MC Escher is one of the most disquieting tergiversators of the reality. Impossible, perspective points of view deceptive, stairs that raise infinitely, pools that end at themselves. This short transcribes that pictorial knot in a Borgiano filmic story.
