Cienciarte ou ciência e arte? Refletindo sobre uma conexão essencial

Abstract

The relationship between science and art bears witness to the reconciliation necessary to our time, so that both can share and contribute essential elements to education and development of societies. Teaching, research and social and educational technology development of Science and Art in the Graduate Institute Oswaldo Cruz / Fiocruz take on the assumption that the association of art and science education will enable educators, and their future students, to develop new insights and understanding through incorporation of the artistic process to other investigative processes, building an internal and public discourse on the relationship between art, science, human activities, and topics related to multidisciplinary and multicultural activities. The activities deal with various topics in science, health and art, and demonstrate the application of the new paradigm of science & art in the proposal. They express the ownership of the content discussed throughout the research, promoting dialogue between science and art, reinforcing the concept "ArtScience", or in Portuguese, "arteciência" or “ciênciarte”.
