“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.”

Mythological beasts, drawn in the style of old biology textbooks
Biology textbooks from the 1800s could be rather outlandish and gruesome, even when describing harmless animals. But artist/biology PhD student Simone Des Roches has taken things one step further and created a naturalist's profile for mythological critters like dragons and unicorns, complete with requisite zoological jargon.

Sculptor Inspired by Science
PhotoWhen Carnegie Mellon senior art student Lisa Huyett placed a rose petal into a scanning electron microscope (SEM), she was fascinated by what she saw.
The image inspired her to create "S.E.M. Rose," an art installation that represents the petal's bristly surface.

Calgary doctor nominated for science/theatre prize
Eye surgeon by day, by night (or, these days, half the week) Arun Lakra is a writer: plays, screenplays, he’s even recorded an album. Call him a Renaissance Man, call him the ultimate multitasker, call him a workaholic.
The play is Sequence, and it’s nominated for the STAGE (Scientists, Technologists and Artists Generating Exploration) International Script Competition for the best new play about science or technology. Chosen by jury members that include Pulitzer Prize winners (among them Angels in America playwright Tony Kushner) and prize-winning scientists – including a couple of Nobel laureates – the prize is described as a unique collaboration between art and science

Call for Scientists deeply engaged in the arts, design and humanities
One of the obstacles in fostering science/engineering to arts/design
collaboration is the often ‘asymmetrical” nature of the collaborations
where the artist is more invested in the collaboration that the scientist.In this SEAD white paper we are trying to canvass the views of
scientists deeply engaged in such collaborations . If there are any
scientists lurking on YASMIN who are in this category please
contact Carol Strohecker, details belowBroader-Reaching Scientists: Obstacles and Opportunities Facing
Scientists, Mathematicians, and Engineers Deeply Engaged in the Arts and Design.Scientists and engineers in a range of disciplines engage the arts and
design for both personal and professional reasons. This SEAD White
Paper goes beyond avocations such as painting or playing a musical
instrument, to examine obstacles and opportunities that scientists
face when collaborating with artists in professional work.Overlaps among sciences/engineering and arts/design are widely
acknowledged in terms of the shared motivations of questioning and
creativity and the shared approaches of exploration and invention.
Yet, practitioners who attempt collaborative work across conventional
disciplinary boundaries often encounter inhibitory mindsets and
institutional structures. Struggles may also emerge within the
established partnerships: artists may feel exploited, desiring to
contribute more than just illustrations; scientists may disengage
through fear that the artists do not have adequate grounding to
achieve necessary topical depth.Nevertheless, many scientists manage to produce effective work through
broadly cross-cutting collaborations. In this White Paper we propose
to interview a number of scientists, mathematicians, and research
engineers who have engaged deeply with the arts and design, to elicit
a contemporary snapshot of perceived obstacles and opportunities from
scientists’ point of view.We will include representatives of disciplines such as entomology,
neuroscience, chiropterology, meteorology, computer science, and
marine ecology. When the interviewees desire anonymity, we will
maintain it. We will conduct some of the interviews through
face-to-face meetings and some through email correspondence. We will
address these questions among others: details on the website
