G4G Fundraiser Party: Art Sculptures & Magic!
There will be mathematical art sculptures on display and for sale, some of which were created at past Gatherings, and live magic by Matt Baker!
Donations received from this fundraising event will go toward supporting the G4G organization as we plan to move our next Gathering (G4G16) to San Francisco in 2026.
Two-Time Greater Atlanta Magician of the Year, Matt Baker, will be performing magic at the event! Matt Baker is an internationally renowned Georgia Tech mathematics professor by day and an accomplished magician by night. He has published three math books and over 50 research articles, and has won numerous awards for his teaching. He is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society and a two-time recipient of a Simons Fellowship in Mathematics. In his life as a magician, Matt has also met with acclaim. A protegé of the late, great Simon Aronson, Matt is a two-time winner of the Greater Atlanta Magician of the Year award. His first book on magic, The Buena Vista Shuffle Club, was published in April 2019 to rave reviews and is now in its third printing. Matt has performed three times at the invitation-only Fechters Finger Flicking Frolic, the worlds premiere close-up magic convention. He was the instructor for Vanishing Incs acclaimed "Masterclass" series in September 2022, and in 2023 he appeared on the hit television show Penn & Teller: Fool Us.
We will be featuring sculptures by numerous long-time G4G-community members and artists such as: Chaim Goodman-Strauss, Eugene Sargent, Akio Hizume, Rinus Roelofs, Geoge Hart, and Bjarne Jespersen. This is your opportunity to see these sculptures in gallery display and maybe even own one for yourself!
Jim Gardner, Martin Gardners son, will share some memories of Martins interest in mathematical artwork and magic.
