The science of aesthetics. Paul Klee, an early 20th-century artist, once said, “Art does not reproduce the visible, it makes things visible.”

The science of aesthetics

Art has a way of capturing the unfathomable, of translating emotions beyond the capabilities of science and theory. But art can do more than explain our feelings; it can help explain our minds. Aesthetics, the study of personal taste, has always been a subject of philosophical debate. Probably the most argued aesthetic concept is the origin of beauty: Is it really in the eye of the beholder, or is beauty a specific quality, independent of its audience? In recent years, neuroesthetics emerged as a branch of aesthetics equipped with potential new answers to this question. “I am convinced that there can be no satisfactory theory of aesthetics that is not neurobiologically based,” wrote Zeki in “Artistic Creativity and the Brain,” an essay in a 2001 issue of Science.

Broken Heart Burns Like Hot Coffee, Brain Study of Former Lovers Shows

The sting of seeing photos of an ex-lover stimulated the same parts of the brain as intense heat applied to the arms of 40 people in a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The research builds on a 2010 study published in the journal Psychological Science that showed people who took the painkiller acetaminophen, sold by Johnson & Johnson as Tylenol, felt less rejected when excluded from a ball-passing game.

While rejection and physical pain aren’t identical, they are more similar than anyone had realized, said Edward Smith, a psychology professor at Columbia University in New York and an author of today’s study. “There may be something special about rejection,” Smith said in a telephone interview. “No other negative emotion, not anger and not fear, elicits reactions in the pain matrix of the brain.” 'Resume' - Dorothy Parker.
