Abstract: Mathematics and art are considered to be totally opposite disciplines, yet mathematicians, like artists have found to have various points in common. The artists, in general, imitate Nature, because the painters reproduce landscapes, human faces, animals, trees, mountains, etc.; the architects, when giving shape to the buildings, or designing stairs, imitate cacti, waves of the sea or cephalopods. Both have perceived that living beings grow in patterns, it is enough to observe the spirals formed by roses, cauliflowers, gannets, galaxies or snails. Such spirals are inscribed in golden rectangles that become larger, as the being grows, always preserving its golden proportion, and according to the Fibonacci series. I This paper shows how the relationship between Mathematics and Art has been considered, taking advantage of it for mediation of meanings, when addressing topics such as Series, Polar and Exponential Form of a Complex Number, Linear Transformations, Polynomial Roots, Waves, Function Graphs, Trigonometry, Planar Area Centroids, Revolution Solids, Cylindrical Coordinates, Vector Fields, Perspectives, programming, algorithms and more, which are contents of subjects such as Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, Physics, Statics, Electricity and Magnetism, Computer-assisted Drawing, and Linear Algebra, among others, which are contents of subjects taught in the different courses of the Technological Institute of Apizaco. Such a relationship has been highly motivating for students, moreover, it has been useful in the development of attitudinal competences, such as clear perception and reduction of impulsivity. All through the analysis of classical works, such as Sandro Boticcelli’s Venus, Leonardo da Vinci’s La Gioconda, Diego Velázquez’s Las Meninas and Holbein’s Ambassadors, among others.
