EDIT: This is a thread I started back in 2016. Several of the pics are no longer linked to good URL’s so I’ve posted the previous link if you want to find the painting.

I've selected 10 different abstract art works, created by Master abstract artists, chimpanzees, and children. Let's see how many you get correct.

I'll post the answers on page 2. Good luck, you're gonna need it.

No cheating by looking at links on pics dammit!

I see a monkey in the first one. Does that count for anything?

6 is clearly a piece by Franz Kline. His work is pretty distinctive. I'm pretty sure I've seen 8 somewhere. At first I thought it was a Frankenthaler, but it uses too much paint. I'm going to guess Jasper Johns or Cy Twombley?

2,3,6,9 master

I have no clue how to determine the difference between a child and chimp with regards to painting. Especially without defining the ages of the child artists.

Do you have pictures with more detail?

Also, going to need mediums.

Artist name and some background would help.
