Think “art”. What comes to your mind Is it sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese painting in the Palace Museum Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern of lights
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colorful floating clouds when lit up at night. Visitors can not only enjoy looking at them, they can also interact with them - literally.
①_________ Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting, but are they really art
Whatever your opinion, people have been expressing their thoughts through art with various tools and technologies for thousands of years. Yet Michelangelo and others have been labelled as “artists” rather than “technicians”.②_________
Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology. As a result, the art world is changing greatly. ③_________ Take for example one of China’s most famous paintings, Along the River During the Qingming Festival. As this artwork is rarely on display, people have sometimes queued a long time for a chance to see it. Thanks to technology however, millions more people have been able to experience a digital version of it with 3D animation.
④_________ Not only can we interact with art, but also take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people have created exciting new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos.
However, such developments are making the line between art and technology less distinct. Is the artist the creator of the art itself, or the maker of the technology behind it
⑤_________ But one thing is for sure - with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.
A. Now art is more accessible to us than ever before.
B. Where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess.

D. They do this by using their phones to change their colors and patterns.
