When Caren Holtzman and Lynn Susholtz look around a classroom, they
see "a veritable goldmine of mathematical investigations" involving
number, measurement, size, shape, symmetry, ratio, and proportion.
They also think of the ways great artists have employed these
concepts in their depictions of objects and space -- for example,
Picasso's use of geometric shapes in his Cubist still lifes or
contemporary artist Tara Donovan's room-sized sculptures of
everyday items. In their new book, Object Lessons, Caren (a math
educator) and Lynn (an artist and art educator) use a highly visual
approach to show students and teachers the art in math and the math
in art. Integrating visual arts into math experiences makes the
lessons accessible, engaging, and meaningful for a wide range of
students.
