Answer to Question 1

Kahlo began to paint self-portraits as an affirmation that she existed, surrounding herself with relevant objects of her culture. Vermeer evoked fundamental questions of our existence and employed gentle lighting and symbolic objects that convey issues humans address in their journey through life.

Answer to Question 2

Spiral Jetty is sculpture on a grand scale. Smithson was fascinated with the ecology of salt lakes and was drawn to the idea that an artist could participate in the shaping of landscape as a geological force.
