Answer: The musician did not play anything for four minutes and thirty-three seconds.

Explanation:

4′33″ is John Cage's legendary silent piece, known for being composed to be played with any instrument. It has three movements in complete silence, no music, no lyrics, and it lasts four minutes and thirty-three seconds.

David Tudor premiered the piece in 1952, marking the beginning and the end of each movement by opening and closing the keyboard lid of the piano. The piece was meant to show how even silence is made of many accidental sounds for those who are willing to hear them. However, it was controversial because many people didn´t understand it and some even walked before the performance ended.

Answer:

Don't be lazy.

Explanation:

Draw something about Love, Peace and Acceptance. And explain it. No one will draw for you. Draw about your family, or your pet, or yourself.

You could write the paragraph about yourself (for example) finding calm and peace in you.

You could draw yourself doing things you enjoy in your life, such as going out with friends or reading.

Compare relief sculpture to free standing sculpture. What do you think the benefits are of making a relief over a free-standing

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Both free-standing sculpture and reliefs are sculpturing methods, done in various materials, trying to make covey artistic impressions in a three-dimensional method. Relief is a technique in which the statue is attached to the background plane. A free-standing statue (as suggested by its name) exists without the back support and can be sculptured and seen from all angles.

Reliefs are better as the architectural elements in the terms of design and planning. They can easily be incorporated into space as the decoration, as they take up less room. They can be placed anywhere on the wall or freeze to make the area come to life and give it some art ornament.

Additionally, reliefs are an excellent way to make an art piece in which light and shadow take an important part. As they have background elements on which the shadows can be seen, by making the different texture of relief, these can be an important part of the impression of the art piece as its seen by the observer, making natural elements a crucial part of the design itself.

The drawback of the relief compared to the free-standing statue is that it can’t give a full impression of three-dimensionality. It still has its background that it is attached to, and it can’t be seen separately, in free space, from all angles, and as a real body in the space. This element also can make relief harder for transportation and movement – reliefs have historically been the part of the architecture of the buildings itself, and if they want to be preserved and displayed in the museum, they have to be cut from their background. On the contrary, the free-standing statue can be transported separately and without any additional operations.

Do you look at people suffering from abnormal behaviors in a new, more compassionate way? Discuss how you should treat a person

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The worst thing we can do is judge, from a non-personal, judgy, cynical way that we so often do. Just because someone does things that make us uncomfortable, doesn't mean there instantly worthy of being completely ignored or laughed at. We simply need to cut a bigger piece of grace. We, as humans, with sensitive feelings and emotions, use and abuse words to either lift up or destroy people. The old saying " Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will not hurt me " is nothing but a complete lie. Words can hurt to a level that external pain can never reach. So instead of shunning people that are awkward, hard to relate to, or do things that make our little boxes uncomfortable, just try to fit into their shoes and befriend them. 100%, and I mean 100% of people, do things for specific reasons.
