It has been a bit of an argument to decided what's the relationship between Arts and Science. I believe that Arts is the appreciation of the unknown and hidden science which one day would eventually be understood. Its just like the process of learning, you have to ask a question before you can learn about.
Art is important, I agree but the question isn't Arts or Science but rather where should we focus on, the impact of art is abstract and indirect while science really creates value in order to sustain life in the most efficient way, ART is a nice comfort while science is necesarry
