Question

what does the term nonrepresentational art mean?
a. art that has no visible subject
b. art that has a background behind a subject
c. art in which there is a complete awareness of an object

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of nonrepresentational art, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Nonrepresentational art (also known as abstract or non - objective art) is defined as art that does not depict a visible subject from the real world. It focuses on elements like color, shape, line, and form rather than representing people, places, or things.
• Option B: Art with a background behind a subject is still representational or has a visible subject (the main subject and the background), so this does not fit the definition of nonrepresentational art.
• Option C: Art with a complete awareness of an object implies that the object is a subject of the art, which is the opposite of nonrepresentational art.

Answer:

A. art that has no visible subject
