In today’s world of advanced science and technology, we still greatly value our artists such as musicians, painters and writers. What can arts tell us about life that science and technology cannot?

It is true that artists

such

as musicians, painters and writers have still gained a great deal of respect from their audiences and readers in spite of the dominance of advanced

science

and

technology

. Personally, I think the role of

art

is irreplaceable because it conveys many meaningful messages about

fail to.

First

life

art
