An example would be the Golden Rectangle, (which is the only rectangle that can form into itself in a mollusk-shell shape until infinity - see below in Fibonacci Numbers section) or the Golden Section. (a line cut at "an extreme and mean ratio" - see below) Note how these simple shapes (i.e. the mollusk- shell,) appear most frequently in nature - snail shells, and even apple-seed stars that form a pentagram, have proportions to Phi. Geometric shapes of these (Golden Ratio) dimensions can also be found in magnificent works of art - and most mathematicians agree, they are magnificent because ...

Working with fellow painter, and friend, Georges Braque, Picasso experimented with geometric forms. ... Body parts and objects within the picture were broken down into geometric shapes that were barley recognizable as the original image. Analytic cubists reduced natural forms to their basic geometric parts and then tried to reconcile these essentially three-dimensional parts with the two-dimensional picture plane. ... In addition to naturalistic colors, forms were rigidly geometric and compositions subtle and intricate. The second category, known as Synthetic Cubism, used more decorative sh...
