Subject-Art

Suppose that after you study some of the great artists of modern times such as Henri Matisse, Wassily Kandinsky, and Pablo Picasso, you take your friends to the art museum to expose them to what you've learned. You walk through the Renaissance, Baroque, Neoclassic, Romantic, and Realist exhibition rooms first. Then you head to the Fauve, Expressionist, and Cubist rooms. Your friends are shocked. One friend sees a Matisse and responds, "That's not good art!" Another claims, "My little brother could do better than that," when viewing a Kandinsky. And another says about a Picasso Analytical Cubism piece, "That's just ugly." Choose one of your friends' responses to modern art and write your response to it. Try to broaden your friend's appreciation of art that is highly abstract. As you answer, add both general aesthetic points and more specific points about the artist and his or her work.
