Welcome to Mr Aslanov’s cefr lessons

 

Q6. Most abstract art starts with a common human experience. You might just have to spend some time 

with a painting to uncover what that is and what it means to you. A painting represents a unique 

conversation between the artist and a particular viewer. Although you don't know anything about the artist 

in order to be moved by a painting, the viewer with the greatest knowledge will most understand the 

artwork. 

 

Q7. Art historians typically identify the early 20th century as an important historical moment in the history 

of abstract art as artists worked to create what they defined as ‘pure art’ — creative works that were not 

grounded in visual perceptions, but in the imagination of the artist. Influential works from this time period 

include Picture with a Circle (1911) by the Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky (1866—1944) and Francis 

Picabia’s Caoutchouc (1909).
