To find "criteria of simplicity" was the goal of David Hilbert's
recently discovered twenty-fourth problem on his renowned list of
open problems given at the 1900 International Congress of
Mathematicians in Paris. At the same time, simplicity and economy
of means are powerful impulses in the creation of artworks. This
was an inspiration for a conference, titled the same as this
volume, that took place at the Graduate Center of the City
University of New York in April of 2013. This volume includes
selected lectures presented at the conference, and additional
contributions offering diverse perspectives from art and
architecture, the philosophy and history of mathematics, and
current mathematical practice.
