Both questioned the way people examined the world.

Explanation: Postwar modern art (Cubism, abstraction, Surrealism, etc.) broke from single-point perspective and objective representation to explore multiple viewpoints, subjectivity and fragmentation. Contemporary scientific advances (Einstein’s relativity, quantum mechanics, and the rise of psychology) similarly undermined classical, absolute notions of observation and determinism, prompting new ways of seeing and interpreting reality.
