On the Science and Art of Advertising

Advertising should be a perfect combination of science and art both for the technology of information spreading and the way of presentation. This paper analyzes the scientific character of advertising activity and advertising subject, as well as the artistry in advertising activity and advertising works. In addition, it introduces and evaluates some points of views from the controversy between the advertising science and advertising art school. It concludes that advertising is science but not pure science and advertising is art but not pure art. The scientific and artistic character of advertising is both opposite and unification. It would be a success for modern advertising to insist on the unification between science and artistry.
