I think it is a great pity that scientists are so inimical to art. I think science could learn a lot by looking at art and trying to see what it touches in us. Great art certainly resonates with us in many ways. It makes us feel closer to universal truths. Great artists have captured in their work some great truths. These are truths which might be helpful to science in progressing beyond its narrow, self imposed bounds.
Where did you get this idea from? Which scientists have claimed to be inimical to art? The scientific journals seem to be rather empty of screeds against art.
