N2 - An exhibition guide to accompany 'Ruskin's Perspectives: The Art of Abstraction' exhibition on-site at Brantwood and digital exhibitions and related publications. Ruskin’s Perspectives: The Art of Abstraction22 July – 25 September 2022, Blue Gallery, BrantwoodJohn Ruskin was fascinated by form and pattern, proportion and symmetry, in the world around us. He used the processes of abstraction to communicate his thoughts through the composition of his works: spheres, cones, crystals, planes and spirals. This second exhibition in the ‘John Ruskin in the Age of Science’ series placed Ruskin alongside his nineteenth-century scientific contemporaries, exploring his influence on science and society, in his time and our own. In partnership with The Royal Society and Brantwood, the exhibition draws on a cultural history of maths to explore nineteenth century scientific ideas about the relationship of things and their properties to each other. Catalogue: Ruskin's Perspectives: The Art of Abstraction Catalogue Exhibition Guide Google Arts and Culture exhibit: The Art of Abstraction: Ruskin’s Perspectives Blog – ‘Ruskin’s perspectives’: https://royalsociety.org/blog/2022/07/ruskins-perspectives/
