What is Modern Art and Scientific Thought about?
The author argues that the ideational relationships between the arts and sciences that many critics and historians attest to are delusional. He proposes new and surprising theories that encompass Cubism and the logics of Russell, Hilbert, and Brouwer; Seurat and new notions of reality; the common ground upon which The Bauhaus, Expressionism, Nazism, and Mannheim's Sociology of Knowledge stand on; Cezanne and non-Euclidean geometries. Blue-cloth-bound hardcover with gilt lettering to the spine in a dust jacket. 191 pages; 53 half-page b&w reproductions; 7.5 x 10 inches. Bibliography. Index.
