“Study the science of art and the art of science.” - Leonardo Da Vinci
Leonardo Da Vinci: "Study the science of art. Study the art of science. Develop your senses and especially, learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else" and "only through experimentation can we know anything."
Science is the king of art subjects. It is the art of inventions, discoveries, innovations and gaining more knowledge.
"Science is the new art".
Science-art: selling art to scientists and science to artists.
Education is all about learning all those you want to learn and applying wherever possible.
Albert Einstein’s quote — “the greatest scientists are artists as well”.
Science has always relied on visual representation to convey key concepts.
‘If you can’t explain something simply, you don’t understand it.’ - Albert Einstein
Math is undeniably artistic
An interdisciplinary researcher must face the challenge of being proficient in two (or multiple) different research areas! Not only must s/he be familiar with key principles and methodology in each area, but also understand baseless "biases" and "dogmas" that are a result of inbreeding, and struggle to fight these, as new knowledge emerges from her/his research. An unenviable task indeed! The pointlessness of evaluating such researchers work with conventional metrics should be aptly emphasized.
“The best scientists, engineers and mathematicians are incredibly creative in their approaches to problem-solving and application development”.
"Science, like art, is not a copy of nature but a re-creation of her." – Jacob Bronowski
In scientia veritas, in arte honestas — in science truth, in art honor
E.W. Sinnot, the American biologist and philosopher: "Stored images in the mind are the basis for new creative ideas."
Science based art and literature : communicating complexity through simplicity - Krishna
All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom.
--Physicist and Violinist Albert Einstein
Music gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything by Anonymous
Every science begins as philosophy and ends as art - Will Durant
Life itself is a beautiful interaction between art and science. You can't escape it! - Dr. Krishna Kumari Challa
"The Science of Art is like putting a microphone to the whispers of creativity that echo through the halls of every research laboratory fused with the late night musings of the artists in their studios" - Sachi DeCou
“Every Science begins as Philosophy and ends as Art, it arises in hypothesis and flows into achievement”- Will Durant, The Story of Philosophy
Scientists can be artists as well, while they submit their academic papers, and theses they often draw their own illustrations!
Is suffering really necessary? Yes and no. If you had not suffered as you have, there would be no depth to you, no humility, no compassion.
-Eckhart Tolle
Science has enabled the kind of art we’ve never before seen.
Without the arts, science is hobbled. Without science, art is static.
John Maeda wrote of Leonardo da Vinci’s observations that art is the queen of science.
“Science is as much cultural as art is cultural,”
Art is science made clear (what!).
"The aim of art is not to represent the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance." - Aristotle.
Science is a search for answers, based on logic, rationality and verification. Its workplace is the laboratory.
In contrast, art is a search for questions, based on intuition, feeling and speculation. Its workplace is the studio.
DaVinci himself said, "Art is the queen of all sciences communicating knowledge to all the generations of the world. "
"Art is the heart's explosion on the world. Music. Dance. Poetry. Art on canvas, on walls, on our skins. There is probably no more powerful force for change in this uncertain and crisis-ridden world than young people and their art. It is the consciousness of the world breaking away from the strangle grip of an archaic social order." - Luis J. Rodriguez.
For Dawkins, understanding the science behind natural phenomena (and sometimes being reminded of how much more we have yet to learn or discover) can still make our encounters with them sublime. From this point of view, science is the champion of artistic creativity, not its enemy.
"Scientists and artists are both trying to get a better understanding of the world around us, but they are doing it through different lenses,"
It takes many skills to achieve truly remarkable things. A diverse view to solving problems is best.
You need a deep understanding of science to actually manipulate concepts in novel ways and get creative in science - Krishna
"If you hear a voice within you saying, 'You are not a painter,' then by all means paint ... and that voice will be silenced, but only by working."
-- Vincent van Gogh, in a letter to his brother Theo, 28 October 1883.
"The line between art and science is a thin one, and it waves back and forth”
"One of the most common misconceptions about science is that it isn't creative — that it is inflexible, prescribed or boring. Actually, creativity is a crucial part of how we do science"!
"All knowledge has its origins in perception." Da Vinci.
“The scientist does not study nature because it is useful to do so. He studies it because he takes pleasure in it; and he takes pleasure in it because it is beautiful." Jules Henri Poincare
The beauty of art lies in the inimitable creativity of the artist and in the interpretation of the beholder.
"Artists see things one way and scientists another and the really interesting thing is in what's in between."
Einstein’s support of artistic endeavors is both well-known and well-documented.
“The greatest scientists are artists as well,” he once said.
Atul Dodiya (Indian Artist) : Life is beautiful as a painter. Changing colour, observing life and paying attention to every detail that we’re exposed to, and then giving our own vision to it… Nothing gives me more joy.
Art : You accomplish a task that is called art as there is no specific postulates or guidelines.
Science : You do the work with a set of guidelines.
"Change and risk-taking are normal aspects of the creative process. They are the lubricants that keep the wheels in motion. A creative act is not necessarily something that has never been done; it is something you have never done."
-- Nita Leland in The Creative Artis
Pablo Picasso once said, "Good artists copy, great artists steal." All creative artists build upon the work established by the masters before them. ( Not me!- Krishna)
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep – Scott Adams
‘Art makes science come alive for students’
Albert Einstein - “The greatest scientists are artists as well”.
“ Science art shows some of the incredible natural beauty that researchers in life sciences see every day in their work.”

Date: 9 Jul - 14 Aug 2011Dr. Fung Kai Hung is a medical doctor with specialist qualification in radiology. His special professional interests include interventional radiology, neurointervention and 3D medical visualization. He graduated from the University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong in 1977. Currently he is appointed consultant radiologist in the Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital, Hong Kong.
He is a self-taught new media artist located in Hong Kong. He uses 3D computed tomography (CT) as his creative medium since 2003. During his involvement in the “Surgical Virtual Reality Laboratory” program of the “Minimal Invasive Surgery Training Center” in his hospital, he researched on the use of color in 3D image rendering of CT scans. He pioneered the development of a “Rainbow Technique” that was published in Leonardo in 2006. This technique utilizes contour lines rendered in rainbow colors to define 3D forms and space. Applying this technique, Dr. Fung won the first place in the 5th International Science & Engineering Visualization Challenge sponsored by Science and National Science Foundation, U.S.A. in 2007. His award winning imagery was honored as one of the “Best Science Photo 2007” and “Top Ten News Photo Galleries 2007” by National Geographic. In 2007, his medical visualization project won gold, silver and bronze awards in different categories in the Hong Kong Information & Communication Technology (ICT) awards sponsored by Hong Kong Government. In 2008, he again won gold and grand awards in the Hong Kong ICT awards.
In 2008, he developed 3D and 4D stereoscopic color artworks using CT scans. In 2009, he applied 3D & 4D Moiré effect in his color artworks using CT scans.
His artworks were featured in over 100 websites and numerous news media and magazines internationally. He is a regular contributor to the “Illuminations” section of the radiology journal RadioGraphics since July 2008. He participated in museum exhibitions in the Hong Kong Museum of Art (Hong Kong) in 2008, in the William Benton Museum of Art, University of Connecticut (Connecticut, U.S.A.) and in the American University Museum, Katzen Arts Center (Washington, U.S.A.) in 2009 and will be exhibiting in the New York Hall of Science (New York, U.S.A.) in 2010. He has an online gallery in the NewScientist website and another online gallery in the Spanish newspaper El mundo salud website in 2009.

Science professor to publish Florentine art book
There is science in art, though not everyone may realize it.
David Puett, regents professor and former department head of biochemistry and molecular biology at the University, is hoping to amend this deficit in how we perceive science and art through a book he is writing with his wife.
“Our goal with this book is to bridge the gap between art and science,” said Puett. “We’re talking about the science in art. We’re talking about the mathematics of art – perspective drawing taken to a really high level mathematically, geometrically; how different pigments are perceived by people and the chemistry of those pigments; astronomy; even the proportions of works of art.”
The working title for the book is “Renaissance Florence from a Dual Perspective: Art in Science, Science in Art.” As the tentative handle suggests, the book has a decided bent toward Florentine Renaissance art while aiming to provide a broad education on how science informs art.
“The science students want to know how it was done, how the chemicals work in the frescoes, why do they turn out that way -- whereas the art students are more interested in looking at the paintings on the ceilings and so forth, and admiring them. We realized as they were discussing it that if you look at art from both perspectives, it enlarges the whole experience.”

All the four news items are from ANAT digest:
The Assembled Self :: Artist Call-Out :: Sydney
Expressions of Interest for participation due Monday 3 September 2012
The Assembled Self is a project about the experience of genotyping (genetic testing) and how this affects an individual’s sense of self. It is driven by our interest in how genetic testing alters the narratives through which people anchor their own, their families, and their communities’ identities. The project involves a collaboration of researchers and artists conducting a creative research project where artists produce new works (phase 1) to be presented to generate public conversations around genetic testing and identity (phase 2). The Assembled Self is holding a research development workshop on Saturday 22nd September to think through these ideas and find artist collaborators. Subject to a successful funding application, 8 artist collaborators will be provided with financial and logistical support for their artistic contribution to The Assembled Self. For further information, please contact Estelle Noonan or Julie Mooney-Somers assembled.self@sydney.edu.au. This project is conducted by Centre for Values, Ethics and the Law in Medicine, University of Sydney and School of the Arts and Media, University of New South Wales. It is supported by Australia Council for the Arts and PerformanceSpace.
