Fibonacci in art



The flight of numbers by artist Mario Merz, a luminous equipment on the Mole Antonelliana in Turin - Italy, represents Fibonacci numbers.
Do you know any other artistic works inspired to Fibonacci numbers?


Yes, in fact this is what we found: on the chimney of the power station in Turku (Finland) one can see the Fibonacci numbers from 1 to 55. They actually are 2m high neon lights. The building was also designed by Mario Merz and it was the first commission of an environmental art project in 1994. The architect calls it "a metaphor of the human quest for order and harmony among chaos." (source here)
