Sažetak
This paper aims to make comparisons between basic scientific theories
and big artificial master-pieces. This noneveryday attempt of connecting
seemingly heterogeneous disciplines was a result of thinking that modern
science offers us possibility for different observation and understanding of
material world – confinement which separates “subject” and “object” from
the origin is shown as a circle of interdependent differences in nature and
with that in art and science. Michelangelo’s works inform us how nature
is mathematically simple (and that is the essence of its beauty in perfect
symmetry) giving us an insight into continuous and harmonious circle of
a human and nature interdependence. Results of Michelangelo’s classical
power and easy perceiving of simple natural laws are works of art whose
value is imperishable and takes the breath away. Especially fascinating
is awareness with how much success the great artist connected functional
and aesthetic, what is explicitly shown in the example of Piazza del
Campidoglio design. The aim is to point out Michelangelo’s ability of recognizing
beauty in diversity, which is possible to find only in the structured
nature offering which we have neglected because of exaggerated tyranny
of “common sense”. The leading idea is necessity of connecting science, art
and modern technologies under the cover of new philosophic thinking
what undoubtedly can help in overcoming crisis of modern creativity.
