Reading the passage
We do get a change over time for abstract expressionism: powerful early work gives way to a later generation described as airy, high-minded, and overly lyrical. We need wording that matches that contrast, without inventing another history of the movement.
Working the answers
- A
No shift from abstract images toward realistic subjects is described for abstract expressionism. The later discussion of realism concerns Lichtenstein.
- BCorrect
Intensity fits the early work's power, while lyricism matches the description of the later generation. This restates the change the writer identifies.
- C
The early work already expressed private emotions. The account doesn't describe a move from intellectualism into emotionalism.
- D
No change from obscurity to clarity is given.
- E
The writer doesn't compare how densely or sparsely the paintings are arranged.
