Online I have learned about a recent lecture by Werner Herzog at Brooklyn Public Library's Pi-Day celebration: Is Math Art? Werner Herzog Says Yes.
Quoting from Herzog's presentation:
"Beyond all of this, I do believe mathematics is a new form of art. . . It is loaded with meaning. It's not just an aesthetic or a form of abstract painting. It's loaded with poetry."
Werner Herzog is a German filmmaker, actor, opera director, and author. His presentation included these poetic words of Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519):
Truth
is
the daughter
of
time.
