Elena Asins: Fragments of Memory

From 14 Jun 2011 to 11 Oct 2011

15 June-12 Oct. According to the Reina Sofia Museum, currently hosting an exhibition of the work of Spanish artist Elena Asins (born in 1940), her work reflects "both the constructive tradition of the 20th-century avant-garde movement and the computation and information theory of the 1960s".

Considered one of Spain's pioneers of computer-assisted art, the show reveals how Asins' art provides a visual response to Ramsey's theorem, one of the most intriguing certainties in mathematics.

Named after British mathematician and philosopher Frank P. Ramsey it states that complete disorder is impossible in the universe.
