Fourfield by Tony Robbin
The artists Monet, Seurat and Duchamp were all interested in depicting a fourth dimension more than a century ago, but only recently have computer technology and scientific enquiry permitted the necessary means for its exploration. Tony Robbin, a painter and sculptor based in New York, has been using this new technology to create wondrous works that blur the boundaries typically erected between art and science. Robbin's writing and reproductions of his works help him probe terrain from which most artists run - relativity, non-euclidean geometry, hypercubes and quasicrystals, this book assists the reader in seeing 4D imagery, packaged with "Fourfield" 3D glasses, which are also effective with the computer software available by mail to the book's buyers.
Tony Robbin has had more than twenty-five solo exhibitions of his paintings and sculpture since his debut at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1974. He is a pioneer in the computer visualization of four-dimensional geometry and the author of Engineering a New Architecture, published by Yale University Press.
