Answer to Question 1

Answer: a

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. Matisse cut paper to create compositions, combining the cutting technique with the act of gluing to a surface.
2. Matisse combined the effects of painting with color with the properties of paper, a support associated with drawing.
3. Kentridge employs his drawings to create animated films, a modern medium.
4. Kentridge builds up his films with single drawings in charcoal and pastel, which he alters with erasure, additions, and redrawings that are photographed. Instead of being constructed from drawings, Kentridge's films are constructed from photographs of drawings in process.
