Comprising two material measurements of real space — one vertical (the Stacks), the other horizontal (the Progressions)-- each takes the form of a linear,
mathematical progression of alternating solid form and empty space.
A young French code breaker named Sophie Neveu makes the same observation and explains that the Fibonacci sequence is one of the most
famous mathematical progressions in history.
While at first glance the paintings appear to conform to a broadly Minimalist aesthetic, closer examination reveals a nuanced breed of modular abstraction based not on Donald Judd's reign of seriality and symmetry, but rather
on mathematical progressions and classical ratios.
They developed their constructions through relationships of simple, harmonic and repeated forms
using mathematical progression and rules of proportion.
Stacked, aligned, cantilevered, or centered, their strict geometric arrangements — often derived
from mathematical progressions — eliminate the idea of composition and achieve a singular focus on the object itself.
Once you get off the express train of
mathematical progression, whether at the station of fractions, or decimals, or the quiet towns of Sine and Cosine, there is no local to catch.
These connections to the focus QSC are built to inform both the content and the measure of
the mathematical progression of skills and concepts.
Eureka Math — also known as EngageNY — is a complete, Pre — K through 12 curriculum that carefully sequences
the mathematical progressions into expertly crafted modules.

Montoya's first major sequence of works was the Target series (2003), a set of paintings of circles based on geometric abstraction — for him, «Colour and form achieving a perfect communion... like
a mathematical progression».
Working with modular forms and
mathematical progressions, these artists were able to expand upon art's possibilities in ways that would help to define an era and extend its influence from art to design and from the regional to the transcendent.
