Answer:
The Monotone Symphony March 9, 1960
On a clear night in March at ten pm sharp a crowd of one hundred people, all dressed in black tie attire, came to the Galerie International d'Art Contemporain in Paris. The event was the first conceptual piece to be shown at this gallery by their new artist Mr. Yves Klein. The gallery was one of the finest in Paris.
Mr. Klein in a black dinner jacket proceeded to conduct a ten piece orchestra in his personal composition of The Monotone Symphony, which he had written in 1949. This symphony consisted of one note.
Three models appeared, all with very beautiful naked bodies. They were then conducted as was the full orchestra by Mr. Klein. The music began. The models then rolled themselves in the blue paint that had been placed on giant pieces of artist paper - the paper had been carefully placed on one side of the galleries' wall and floor area - opposite the full orchestra. Everything was composed so breathtakingly beautifully. The spectacle was surely a metaphysical and spiritual event for all. This went on for twenty minutes. When the symphony stopped it was followed by a strict twenty minutes of silence, in which everyone in the room willingly froze themselves in their own private meditation space.
At the end of Yves' piece everyone in the audience was fully aware they had been in the presence of a genius at work, the piece was a huge success! Mr. Klein triumphed. It would be his greatest moment in art history, a total success.
The spectacle had unquestionable poetic beauty, and Mr. Kleins' last words that night were, "THE MYTH IS IN ART".

<span>Of the contemporary artists who are exploring large-scale drawings on walls,
Gary Simmons specializes in the medium of chalk.
He is an American artist who often uses cultural stereotypes in his art in order to convey a specific message. He is one of the rare artists today who uses chalk in order to do that, drawing immense images on a black background which astonish his audience. I've attached an example of his work.</span>
Answer:
Painting needed to serve as useful and accurate historical documents, and therefore had to appear realistic.
Explanation:
There may be many reasons for realism in art before photography. One of them is that at that time, probably, artists and society weren't ready for other kinds of artistic exploration. If you think about it, artistic vanguards all came during the 20th century, when the world and humanity were in a different time and context. But before that, and before photography, art wasn't merely focused on the artist's expression and individuality. Artists served royalty and religion, and had the objective of working as a documentation of those times. Michelangelo, for instance, worked for the Medici family. And that's only one example. Kings of all countries had artists painting them, portraying life in castles, parties, births, etc. When photography came along, arts changed completely as it wasn't necessary to use it as a documentation tool.
