Why were M C Escher's works important?

I'm not necessarily sure that "important" is quite the right word. His work is unusual and well-liked by most mathematicians and scientists, but ultimately, they're still "just drawings", not a cure for cancer or anything. However, Escher's art often can be useful in illustrating mathematical or physical or philosophical concepts, even if it's just to the extent of pointing out why some of his drawings couldn't be constructed in real life. Recursion, tesselation, and impossible figures are common Escher subjects.

Why did the Mayas paint a town red?

The Mayas painted towns red as a symbolic act, often associated with the concept of renewal, fertility, and the sacredness of life. Red was a significant color in Maya cosmology, representing the sun, blood, and the vibrancy of life. This practice could also serve as a way to honor deities or mark important events, reinforcing cultural identity and community cohesion.
