Human Anatomy is the science that studies the macroscopic structures of the human body and has been expressed over the centuries in great artistic works and cultural manifestations. Therefore, the objective of this work was to carry out a brief dissertation on the interactions between artistic and anatomical knowledge. For this issue, scientific texts capable of promoting the association of both contents were used, which can be represented through images, paintings, drawings, sculptures, various works and various auxiliary methodologies applied to these sciences. It can be concluded that knowing and deepening knowledge about anatomy and its manifestation through artistic and cultural works are capable of stimulating interest in the human body and its interaction with various areas of knowledge, encouraging the active search for information and promoting a integrated learning.
