Lumen Naturae: Visions of the Abstract in Art and Mathematics

Focusing on the intersections of modern art, mathematics, and physics, the book delves into themes such as space, randomness, and the cosmos. Matilde Marcolli, a mathematical physicist, connects these concepts to the works of renowned artists like Paul Cezanne and Mark Rothko. Through her scientific inquiries, she highlights the shared puzzles of the universe, supported by over two hundred color images of modern and contemporary art, creating a rich dialogue between disciplines.
