Abstract:
The dialogue between medicine and art,which has evolved throughout the history of human civi-lization,illustrates the deep interconnection between science and humanities.While medicine preserves life health through rational thought and technological progress,art explores the essence of life through emotional expression.This article examines the common origins of medicine and art,the ways in which art inspires medical innovation,the application of art therapy in clinical settings,the representation of medicine in artistic creation,and the role of art education in medical training.Drawing on historical and contemporary case studies,this article revisits key moments in the integration of medicine and art,highlighting their joint contributions to the understanding of life,emotional healing,ethical reflection and cultivation of medical professionals.It underscores the importance of sustained interdisciplinary dialogue between these fields for advancing both human health and cultural development.
