Some modern artists think that it's not important any longer for a work of art to be "about"
something—that what matters most is its visual
impact. What do you think? Do you think that art
should be "about" something in order to be
meaningful? Or do you think the visuals are
more important? Why?

eah

Explanation:

okah this is have a good lagh at my account

        i think it is referred as the 8th wonder of the world because each of the terra cotta warriors was not the same. they each had many things with their physical stature, like different height, armor, and different characteristics, which were all different. what makes it interesting is that there were 8,000 soldiers in that tomb. so making that many soldiers for the emperor meant a-lot to the emperor. it means that their is strength in numbers now matter how different.

hope it : p

i'm not sure i completely understand your question, but i will do my best.

i think the answer you are looking for is sequence. (see below)

a repeated melodic fragment would be best defined as repetition, while repeated chords (different or the same) could be a chord progression. however, you then mentioned the chord and melodic fragment beginning on higher or lower pitches, in that case, the answer could be best defined as a sequence. the definition of a sequence is as follows: "the restatement of a motif or longer melodic (or harmonic) passage at a higher or lower pitch in the same voice."

let me know if this !
