Question

select the text from the paragraph that best helps you understand that abstract means not true to life. there may be more than one correct choice.
picassos rise to prominence began in 1907. while living in paris, he produced a painting that featured five barcelonian women represented by sharply contrasting geometric shapes. instead of a realistic representation of the women, the painting presented an abstract scene showing the womens forms from multiple viewpoints at once. that the art world had never seen such a painting before only added to picassos growing popularity. this painting, les demoiselles davignon, would serve as the inspiration for the artistic movement that came to be known as cubism.

Explanation:

The phrase "instead of a realistic representation" contrasts with "abstract", showing that abstract does not follow a true - to - life (realistic) approach. The description of using "sharply contrasting geometric shapes" and presenting "forms from multiple viewpoints at once" also implies a departure from a lifelike, single - perspective, realistic depiction.

Answer:

"Instead of a realistic representation of the women", "sharply contrasting geometric shapes", "showing the women's forms from multiple viewpoints at once"
