Bauhaus particle physics

Some of these paintings by Roshan Houshmand (symmetry, Jun/Jul 07) remind me of the works of Paul Klee (of the Bauhaus School in the 1920s in Germany) and also those of Joan Miró to some extent in another way. Certainly her painting “Retro” connects in my mind with Kandinsky.

Bauhaus particle physics

Some of these paintings by Roshan Houshmand (symmetry, Jun/Jul 07) remind me of the works of Paul Klee (of the Bauhaus School in the 1920s in Germany) and also those of Joan Miró to some extent in another way. Certainly her painting “Retro” connects in my mind with Kandinsky.

It is very interesting to me because I see the work of these artists and other 20th century European and North American artists as intimations of a gateway into a new human world. It is happening as much in the human psyche as it is in particle physics, for I see a correspondence here.

Intriguing stuff, indeed!
