Question

Listening Comprehension
- Hello, Masha. Where did you go today?
- Hi, Oleh, I’ve just returned from the art gallery. You know, they’ve
displayed a wonderful exhibition of abstract paintings today. I’m sure you
should have visited it with me.
- No, I do not like modern art at all. It looks like children’s painting, I think.
- Yes, if you do not catch what the artist is trying to render, of course, it may
resemble a primitive picture.
- Well, what can you recommend then, were there any interesting works?
Tell me about some of your favourite pictures.
- There was one great picture, which was painted mostly in black and grey. I
think it was a tree, but it could be anything – you know that these modern
paintings look a bit strange.
- What did you like about that very painting?
- The way the tree looked was very impressive. It was like the tree was made
of hard metal spikes. The mix of white and grey colours made everything
look like it was very cold winter.
- What other paintings did you see?
- There was one more great painting, it was mostly in black and white
colours. It looked great. It’s very difficult to describe. But my favourite was
the one we saw in the last room we visited.
- What was special about it?
- That was a beautiful painting. The artist depicted a meadow where all the
grass was red and purple. In the background there was a green sky. I enjoed
it and remembered summer. On the whole the picture was very impressive
because it had a black frame. I spent about ten minutes just looking at that
beautiful picture.

- Well, that sounds great. Maybe I’ll change my mind and visit this exhibition.
- You should go there. You would enjoy some of the paintings and be
inspired by the artists. You should perceive modern art like food, I think. It
is necessary to taste things to understand if you like them.
- OK, I will.
