网考网解析：
试题答案： 答案解析：An art movement, known as "Anti-Form Movement", claims that artists should make art accessible to all and objects have no additional meanings in artwork. Two approaches are widely applied in anti-form art works: simple materials and outdoor exhibitions. Morris’s work Felts is made of strips of cut fabric and Morris processed the fabrics, making it like a composition of many irregular elements. Another artist put a piece of large white cloth in public and any passers-by could take a look. The blow of the wind swayed the cloth and made it like a moving artwork. [听力原文] W: Expressed by the principle "form for form", the artistic movement known by the name of Anti-Form, rejects the basis of attributing an accessory meaning. This genre of arts claims that in reality an object is an object, without any other additional meaning. They want to make art accessible to all the people and art is no longer labeled as "expensive". Two approaches are widely applied in anti-form art works: simple materials and outdoor exhibitions. Firstly, the anti-form artists often use industrial or building materials, such as steel, glass-fiber, rubber, plywood and waste material, on which they just add some simple actions. Examples of this include Morris’s work "Felts". It was made of strips of cut fabric, the remains of industrial processes, with which the artist handles in various ways. The ultimate look was like a composition of many single irregular elements. Secondly, most anti-form artists located their exhibition outside to provide easy access for the public and the weather factor can be purposely applied into their artworks. An anti-form artist put a piece of large white cloth in the fountain area at the centre of the town for three weeks and many passers-by stopped to have a look at this piece of cotton artworks. Interestingly, the light breeze blowing in the air swayed the cloth and made it like a moving artwork. That was a fantastic combination of nature and still artworks, and it was not expensive at all. document.getElementById("warp").style.display="none"; document.getElementById("content").style.display="block"; 查看试题解析出处>>
