go.epfl.ch/Shapes

In complementarity with the Shapes: Patterns in Art and Science exhibition, this symposium is intended as a meeting place for a convivial dialogue between art and science, offering a dynamic space for exchange where artists and scientists can confront their ideas and nurture enriching debates. The audience will be invited to take an active part in these discussions, contributing to a collective reflection on the creations and concepts that emerge at the crossroads of these two worlds.

— Panel 1: Archetypes in Art and Mathematics
An archetype is a fundamental and recurring model that embodies universal forms or structures : the sphere can be viewed as an instance of archetype traversing both art and mathematics. What other examples illustrate the influence of archetypes in these fields? How do such archetypes inspire research and creation in art and mathematics? Finally, what are the commonalities and divergences in the way art and mathematics approach and interpret these archetypes?
