Art and Science for the Youth of New Mexico

The author posits that students’ fear of science would be lessened if science education were combined with art education. To further such a combination, the author curated several “Art and Science” exhibitions and gave scientific demonstrations on art-related techniques. The encouraging reception of these exhibitions suggests that a rapprochement between art and science is possible. The need for such rapprochement is vital if we are to solve our global ecological problems.
