UK - Oxford - University of Oxford - Maths Institute interior 01_sq_DSC0120

I don't normally like to 'bump' images to the front of my photostream but in this case I'm going to make an exception as it forms the perfect announcement to the Oxfordshire Artweeks 2016 Group Exhibition I'm part of.

 

Not only is the image featured as one of my eight images but it's on our publicity materials thanks to its relevance as being a shot of the Exhibition venue itself. If you'd like to see some of my architectural images along with the work of another ten talented photographers you'll have to wait until tomorrow (and officially Saturday) as we're not hanging the exhibition till later this afternoon. The last day of the Exhibition will be Driday 27th May so you've got several weeks to get down there........

A very crisp looking detail of the Rafael Viñoly Architects designed Andrew Wiles Mathematical Institute building in Oxford.

 

Having lost our original Artweeks 2016 Central Library venue due to the redvelopment of the Westgate Centre, I can now reveal that the Oxford Photographers group show will take place inside the atrium of the Andrew Wiles Mathematical Institute building next May.

From Wikipedia : "The Mathematical Institute is the mathematics department at the University of Oxford, England. It forms one of the ten departments of the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences Divisional Board in the University.

 

Oxford Mathematics includes both pure and applied mathematics (statistics is a separate department) and is one of the largest and most respected mathematics departments in the UK with about 90 faculty. Its research covers a range of fields from, for example, Algebra and Number Theory to the applications of mathematics to industry, climate, and the brain. It has over 850 undergraduates, over 200 postgraduates and around 150 MSc students.

 

As of Michaelmas term 2013 Oxford Mathematics has been unified and is now housed in the striking, purpose built Andrew Wiles Building on the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter in North Oxford, near the original Radcliffe Observatory. Sir Andrew Wiles, a Royal Society Research Professor at the University of Oxford, is best known for proving Fermat's Last Theorem."
