The GeoMathArt exhibition aim is to present the works of artists which demonstrates the relationship between geometry, mathematics and art.
GeoMathArt establishes connections between various forms of knowledge and methods that promote artistic and scientific achievements, and between cultural patterns of different types and uses.
GeoMathArt exhibitions  aims to raise awareness of the outcomes of the interaction between the representatives of the arts and sciences and to present the diversity of opportunities behind the application of shared thinking.
GeoMathArt  presents the interplay between art and science in terms of opening – with regard to freedom of research and self-expression.
Geometry is the organising basis of several trends in fine arts that appeared since the nineteen tens and are effective by now. This organising basis applied many elements/motifs taken from geometry.
GeoMathArt  theme emphasizes that geometric art (as a collective concept) continues in a straight direction since its appearance up to now. Although different, parallel functioning, directions of the arts aim at approaching their self-appointed aesthetic goals by their own means, they proceed in one direction determined by straight lines - as it is expressed in the artwork serving as the image of the exhibition.
All these tendencies use the language of geometry. In the meanwhile, this language developed too parallel with the arts; now we can speak of multiple geometries, which reinterpreted the very concept of parallel, and all these resulted in a feedback to and are reflected in geometric artworks. Straights running into the infinity symbolise in all their depictions the dynamism of the development in the arts, the incompleteness and unfinishability of its history. The exhibition aims at presenting the manysidedness, the multicolour character of the representations accomplished in the course of this development process through the works of the invited artists from Hungary, Slovakia and Czech Republic.
