He _29_(seek) to show not just the outer image of his subjects, _30_ their inner warmth and humanity as well.Modern Art (from the 20th

12、century to today)After Impressionism, subsequent artists began to ask, What do we do next? Painters such as Picasso (1881-1973) tried to analyse the shapes which existed in the natural world _31_ in a new way, with Cubism. Others gave their paintings a realistic but dream-like quality. Still others
