Answer and Explanation:
<u>Objectivity refers to a statement that concerns a fact - something that the speaker or others can prove to be true, or something that is plain for everything to see and agree upon. </u>Having that in mind, the following options from the question are objective:
1. The Vietnam Veterans Memorial was completed in 1982.
3. Van Gogh used many variations of the color blue in The Starry Night.
4. Van Gogh's Self Portrait measures 25.5 by 21.5 inches.
All the sentences above state facts instead of opinions. Anyone can look up the date when the Memorial was completed. Anyone can see if there are many variations of the color blue in the painting. Anyone can use a measuring tape.
<u>Subjectivity refers to a statement that concerns an opinion. It is the speaker's personal view or perception of something.</u> Others can easily disagree with what is expressed, and no one can prove it to be right or wrong. Having that in mind, the following options are subjective:
2. Individual expression is the most important aspect of any artwork. - Someone might say something else is the most important aspect. This is an opinion.
5. Artists are more creative than other people. - Not necessarily. Maybe, there are very creative people who are not artists.
6. The painting is beautiful. - Someone might find it ugly.
7. The painting seems large. - Depending on what we compare it to, the painting can also seem small.
8. The house has a cozy feel to it. - Someone might disagree and think the house is uncomfortable or too small, for instance.
