«El espejo mágico de M.C. Escher» is the monograph on the Dutch graphic artist by Bruno Ernst, published by TASCHEN in hardcover (116 pages, in Spanish).
Bruno Ernst, mathematician and friend of M.C. Escher, analyzes in this volume the optical illusions and impossible geometry of the Dutch artist. Based on conversations held with Escher over a year, the author explains how works such as the lithograph «Espejo Mágico» are constructed, with full-page reproductions and commentary on the mathematical problems underlying his perspectives and metamorphoses.
The book includes two hundred and fifty illustrations and biographical data on the artist, with texts reviewed by Escher himself.
Recommended for readers interested in graphic art, optical illusions and the relationship between mathematics and artistic creation.
