Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. Hard - edge painting is an abstract art style characterized by bold, flat areas of color with distinct, sharp edges between color fields, often creating a sense of geometric precision and simplicity.
  2. It became popular in the 1950s and 1960s as part of the broader development of abstract art movements.
  3. For the sketching part, two well - known hard - edge paintings are "White Center (Yellow, Pink and Lavender on Rose)" by Barnett Newman (1957) and "The Spectator" by Ellsworth Kelly (1951). You would need to draw small, simplified versions of these paintings in color and note the title, year, and artist name at the bottom of each sketch.
