19、 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的词或括号内单词的正确形式。
What do you see when you look at abstract art (抽象艺术)? Is it meaningful? Does it look like anything? Abstract art became popular in the early (twenty) century. Artists did not want their art to be realistic at that time. They didn't want things in their works to look like (really) ones. They were more interested in basic shapes and colors.
Picasso is probably most famous of those artists. He painted and drew in many styles. Sometimes he used a lot of blue colors. Later, he used more red and pink colors. Many of his paintings (call) "cubist", because they are made of painted squares. After a long time, Picasso's paintings became more and more abstract. He painted people and things by (use) strange shapes. His work was so original that many of his fellow artists didn't understand it at all.
Kandinsky, another famous artist, used lines, shapes and patterns (paint) his subjects. He also used strong colors to express (he) feelings.
Other artists, like the surrealists, were interested in the subconscious. Painters like Magritte used many symbols in their (work). The meaning or subject of their work wasn't always clear. Dali, another surrealist artist, painted pictures which looked dreams.
There are still many abstract artists the world now. Abstract art is the way many artists prefer. They want people to pay attention to art itself and find the hidden meaning in it.
