Reading the passage
Picasso and Braque were concerned with representation and form. Their stated effort was to create a reality beyond what the eye alone could access. We need an answer about that artistic project.
Working the answers
- A
Their statements don't establish a long-standing interest in politics. They tell us what the painters were trying to do with art.
- B
Reforming society is expressly described as outside their artistic interests (paragraph 3). This gives them the wrong aim.
- C
Their efforts and concerns describe something they were trying to achieve, not an innovation attributed to chance.
- DCorrect
To transcend visual reality is to go beyond what we can see. That restates their attempt to create a reality beyond what vision alone reveals (paragraph 3). Their efforts make it a deliberate project.
- E
Formal means having to do with form. They focused chiefly on questions about representation and form (paragraph 3), so these aspects of their work did interest them.
