Answer 11

in my opinion, it depends on what side the artist is, if he was at the side of the winner nation, then it's D but if he was on the side of the country that lost, then it's B. Countries that lost, the citizens of it tend to be sad, but the country that won tend to feel honored by their soldiers and their triumph.

Answer 14

Please read the 3rd paragraph.

Answer 15

okay

Answer 16

after wars, soldiers feel the horror of wars, that's why most solders right affecting sad poems. If they were artist they can be able to draw paintings depicting the horrors of the war.

Answer 17

Likewise, they may also feel disconnected from reality due to the horrors of the war. Hence the more abstract pieces of art that we call surrealism.

Answer 22

This is tough. Like I was saying, the question says experiment. Realistic paintings have been around for awhile, even before World War 1.

Answer 23

So Realistic paintings haven't been commonly used at the end of World war 1?

Answer 24

Answer 25

They were used, yes. They always will be. But experiment suggests something new that they're trying.

Answer 26

Oh, i get what you mean. Artist begin regimenting new drawing technique after world war 1

Answer 27

Answer 28

that's why in the question it says, what did many artists begin to experiment with? And in Wikipedia, it says "Surrealism developed out of the Dada activities during World War 1"

Answer 29

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dadaism

Answer 30

"Dada was born out of negative reaction to the horrors of World War I. This international movement was begun by a group of artist and poets associated with the Cabaret Voltaire in Zurich. Dada rejected reason and logic, prizing nonsense, irrationality and intuition."

Answer 31

B is commonly drawn by artist after wars, but the question says that artist came up with a new technique after the Great War.

Answer 32
