Question:

What artistic trends are not a part of internationalism?

Options:

Expressionism

Cubism

Abstraction

None of the above

Correct Answer:

None of the above

Explanation:

Answer:  Cubism, Expressionism, and Abstraction
In internationalism, an artist could freely use the style of western modern trends like Cubism, Expressionism, Abstraction, etc.

The tension between internationalism (in which an artist could freely use the style of western modern trends like Cubism, Expressionism, Abstraction, etc.) and indigenous (in which artists turned to native arts) grew acute by the late 1970s. Sculptors like Amarnath Sehgal struck a balance between abstraction and figurative and created wiry sculptures as in Cries Unheard. In case of Mrinalini Mukherjee, her works tilted more towards abstraction when she took up the innovative medium of hemp fibre, as in Vanshri.
