PLEASE HELP ASAP!!

Suppose that after you study some of the great artists of modern times such as
Henri Matisse, Wassily Kandinsky, and Pablo Picasso, you take your friends to the
art museum to expose them to what you've learned. You walk through the
Renaissance, Baroque, Neoclassic, Romantic, and Realist exhibition rooms first.
Then you head to the Fauve, Expressionist, and Cubist rooms. Your friends are
shocked. One friend sees a Matisse and responds, "That's not good art!" Another
claims, "My little brother could do better than that," when viewing a Kandinsky.
And another says about a Picasso Analytical Cubism piece, "That's just ugly."
Choose one of your friends' responses to modern art and write your response to
it. Try to broaden your friend's appreciation of art that is highly abstract. As you
answer, add both general aesthetic points and more specific points about the
artist and his or her work.

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

"My small brother could do better than that," let's say.

Kandinsky was an abstract artist who used his paintings to portray a variety of emotions. While his painting may appear infantile to some, it is absolutely stunning to others. While his paintings appear to be basic and done with little effort, he opted to express himself in this manner, and that was his decision. "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder," as the ancient adage goes. The painting may have represented something significant to the artist. After all, everyone expresses themselves in a number of ways.
