So, there are many similarities in science, philosophy and art. I can t think of them all, so you are also invited to suggest some too. To predict nature, to be able to control nature, to understand nature and to be able to enjoy nature. The scientist is not trying to get his or her view across, but is trying to show that their ideas are in harmony with all the data available at the time. A suggestion is that art is an effort to understand nature through a self-realization, observance, reproduction, and possibly a proclamation of the ennoblement of man s own spirit .
Art is usually quite a subjective exercise.
The artist is trying to represent their subjective view, or understanding, to others. Art seems to derive its power from the personality and inner convictions of the artist, and cannot be separated from the artist.
