Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The Amish in the United States are an example of a/an subculture.

Explanation:

First, we have to understand what is a subculture. In Social Studies, this term is used to describe a behavior that runs against the ordinary way of a social group or the society itself usually does. However, the subculture cannot be confused with the counterculture that tries to promote a social revolution. The subculture members just want to live in their way. In the case of Amish, they are a group of people who follows the Christian doctrines (the Protestantism, to be more specific), but they want to live isolated from society, without technology or technical advances. However, they don't oblige anyone to live on their way of life, that's why they are a subculture.

  B. Edgar Degas.
  C. Paul Gauguin.
  D. Georges Seurat.

Answers

Answer:

B. Edgar Degas, painter of A Ballet Class (between 1871 and 1874)

Explanation:

Edgar Degas (1834-1917) was fascinated by ballet, and more than half of his works are devoted to this theme. Although he also painted ballerinas on stage, he preferred the more informal scenes with the dancers rehearsing or relaxing.

There are parallels between classical ballet and Degas' style and painting techniques that help explain the artist's interest. Classical ballet is an art of great precision and balance, in which perfection is achieved only through repetition and constant practice. Degas's work is also quite accurate.

Even when his paintings together are Impressionists, Degas achieved immediate communication more by his theme and sense of composition than by the spontaneous brushstrokes typical of true Impressionists.

X-ray tests show that Degas has made many changes to this chart. For example, the original idea was that there were two dancers in the foreground, facing the observer. You can still see the face of one of them (detail on the left), between two dancers on their backs, which were painted over the original composition. Another change: At first the instructor was facing the back wall.

The “photographic” quality of Degas's work has been much commented upon. The rapidly receding perspective that makes the two closest dancers appear to be being pulled forward and the group pushed backwards is an effect created by certain camera lenses rather than ordinary human perception. The way pictures are cut at the edges of the frame is also typical of photography. This technique creates a sense of improvisation that seems to belie the artist's talent for detail and the meticulous planning of his compositions.

I believe that the answer is B. Edgar Degas

Which artist does Vasari say was responsible for the abandonment and obsolescence of Giotto's style in Italy?

Answers

Answer: Cimabue

Explanation:

Giorgio Vasari attributed the decline of Giotto's style to the artist Cenni di Pepo, who is often referred to as Cimabue. Vasari believed that artists who followed Cimabue, in their efforts to imitate him, were unable to match the originality and skill of Giotto, leading to a decline in the quality of Italian art. So, according to Vasari, Cimabue was the artist responsible for the abandonment and obsolescence of Giotto's style in Italy.
