What do you see when you look at abstract art？Does it make sense to you? Does it look like anything? Is it supposed to be like …? Abstract art became popular in the early 20th century. Artists did not want to paint, draw, or sculpt things exactly like they looked. They didn’t want their art to be realistic. They were more interested in basic shapes and colours. Picasso is probably the most famous of these artists. He painted and drew in many, many styles. Sometimes he used a lot of blue colours (his “blue period”). Later, he used more red and pink colours (his “rose period”). Many of his other paintings are called “cubist” because they are made of painted squares. After a long time, Picasso’s paintings became more and more abstract. He painted people and things using strange shapes. His work was so original that many of his fellow artists didn’t understand it. Kandinsky, another famous artist, used lines, shapes, and patterns to paint his subjects. His paintings also used strong colours to express feelings. Other artist like the surrealists, were interested in subconscious(潜意识). Painters like Breton and Magritte used many symbols in their works. The meaning or subject of their work wasn’t always clear. Dali, another surrealist artist, painted pictures that look like dreams. There are still many abstract artists around the world. That’s the way many artists prefer. They want each person to look at art and find their own meaning in it. 1.Which would be most like abstract art? A. A painting of a house. B. A sculpture of a car. C. A drawing of two people in a coffee house. D. A red and blue painting, with no clear subject. 2.What happened to Picasso’s work after a long time? A. It became more abstract. B. It became less original. C. He only painted with coloured squares. D. He went from using red colours to using blue colours. 3.How did Kandinsky express feelings? A. By using colours and shapes. B. By painting with a lot of symbols. C. By painting realistic people. D. By painting in red and pink colours. 4.Which of the following is NOT true? A. Picasso painted in many different styles. B. Dali was interested in dreams. C. Abstract artists feel each work of art only has one meaning. D. Magritte’s art was full of symbols.

The most common pictures are flowers, fish, animals, and things about Chinese history. During the Spring Festival, they are put on windows, doors and walls as symbols of wishes for good luck and a happy new year. Chinese clay art is famous because the clay pieces are so small but they look very real. The pieces are carefully shaped by hand from a very special kind of clay and then allowed to air-dry. After drying, they are fired at a very high heat. They are then polished and painted. Finally, materials such as wood or paper are added to make different things. It takes several weeks to complete everything. These small pieces of clay art show the love that all Chinese people have for life and beauty. Beauty in____1____Things
