Scientific education researches indicates the need for teaching about sciences that can discuss its processes in order to distance itself from naive and misleading views. Within this perspective, we defend the dialogue between science and art as a way of understanding scientific knowledge as a culture of a given place and time. Following this approach, we will read, from primary and secondary sources, some pictures of the work of spanish surrealist artist Remedios Varo that help to reflect issues that permeate science. For reading, we will bring the context of the artist along with themes that science was involved in the twentieth century. Finally, we will raise some questions combined with suggestions from this reading for teaching, in order to promote discussions that can problematize science in order to move away from scientific and authoritarian discourses.
