Art evolves, and science progresses. The intersection of the two of them has always been an interesting perspective of human creativity. In 1912 new materials, such as cement, were employed by artists; images from technology and social sciences were inspirations to artists.

Photography helped transmit novel ideas much faster, especially when used in such publications as Scientific American.
