Battaile work showcased at the Tweed Musuem of Art

Bullseye Connection Gallery artist Bennett Battaile will be featured in the Tweed Museum of Art's Contemporary Art and the Mathematical Instinct at the University of Minnesota from November 4, 2003 to January 11, 2004.

This large thematic survey exhibition brings together a group of artists whose diverse works are constructed from, refer to, and/or illustrate mathematical principles.

A mathmatician and software engineer, Battaile uses glass to illuminate theoretical possibilities describing "the structure of space". His work "Spin One-Half" was chosen by curator Peter Spooner because it "integrates mathematics and art so well that there is a seamlessness between them," and describes the sensibility of mathematical harmony in art and aesthetic "beauty" in mathematics.

The exhibition travels to the following locations:

Camden Art Center, Rutgers University, Camden, NJ
February 2 - March 27, 2004

University of Richmond Museum, Richmond, Virginia
October - December 2004
