Nicola Ludwig

Nicola Ludwig Nicola Ludwig was born in Milan in 1966. He studied Physics, and when he was just graduated he started to cooperate with the chair of physical methodologies applied to the arts and the archaeology.

Quickly he starts to focus on the problem of the representation of the not visible (the infrared images) and studies the possible representation of them with a set of in fake colours, explaining the two fundamental involved thesis, which are: the individuation of the physical variable to be represented in the image and the representation/interpretation of the fake colours system.

In 1996 he founded in Milan, with other young researchers, the cultural association called "Evariste Galois", aimed at the science, culture and communication fields fusion.

At the exhibition on the comets he shows variorum cometarum at the ancient astronomical observatory of Brera and, during the month of November 1997, the first edition of the interactive exhibition on scientific experiments called "Seeing the invisible", in cooperation with the Province of Milan. From 1998 he started to deal with colorimetry, in the sphere of a research project on the multi spectral representation of paintings.

He is member of the Italian Society of Optics and Photonic; he has recently won a research doctorate at the Studies University of Florence, with a research project on the image spectroscopy.
From 1996 he started an artistic path on the possibility to represent fundamentals of the physical laws by means of artistic visual works; in the artistic field, this will bring to a complex project on the representation of planetary cromatologies and at the recent creation of the ensemble "Pentalogos", a group of young artist-researchers in the filed of colour and sound perception. Nicola lives and works in Milan.
