Dalrymple-Henderson, Linda. "The Fourth Dimension and Non-Euclidean Geometry in Modern Art: Conclusion." Leonardo 17.3 (1984): 205-210. The MIT Press. Web. 3 Nov. 2010. This article first talks about the non-Euclidean geometries in art from 1900-1930. Non-Euclidean geometry has developed a unique change in mathematics, science, and philosophy. It seemed to clarify the affiliation between mathematics and observations in science. This type of geometry was used to depart from literature-related paintings. It focused on animated, multimedia, and specifically four-dimensional (instead of three-dimensional) paintings. Rice Pereira, an American painter, found the elements of hyperspace philosophy. This philosophy included the glowing works of art that can relate to a mystical action or experience one may have encountered. Language or words is considered unreliable in this art, whereas the four dimensional paintings can speak for themselves. The imagination and enthusiasm of surrealist artists has brought hope and new ideas (like four-dimensional paintings) to modern art.
