In the education of modern schools scientific and art education hold a central place. However, if we look at the amount of time alloted to each. subject, we see that these two fields of study are merely treated as two in a string of subjects, just as they were in the schools of yesteryear despite the fact that there is no solid reason for so continuing.The reason for this lies in the fact that art education is not able to show a clearly outlined content when its purpose is compared with that of scientific education. Actually these two subjects, though both are based on a desire for the understanding of things, are very dissimilar in character. In scientific education abstract thinking and rationality are fostered, but the character of art education is to reject the tendency toward abstract thinking and to stress the direct apprehension of objects. Starting from the difference between these two kinds of education I consider what kind of gap is thereby produced in the student's thought.
