Mathegraphics Integrating Graphic, Geometrical and Algebraic Representation in Teaching and Research Through a Dialogical Approach

In this paper it is discussed the MATHEGRAPHIC workshop, aimed at the learning of Math, Geometry and Graphics by an interdisciplinary and dialogic approach in which the knowledge gained from each discipline becomes a useful support for the learning of the others. This approach is aimed to foster connections among the teaching and the learning of architecture and art history, graphic survey, handmade and digital drawing, geometry and mathematical analysis. Starting from the knowledge of the architectural cultural heritage of the early decades of the twentieth century and from the graphic representation of the decorative motifs that characterized the Art Nouveau and Art Déco styles, it has been proposed a program of study of the forms aimed at the graphic, analytic and algebraic representation of the structures characterizing the decorative motif, as well as at the use of this knowledge in the field of architecture and design.
