Consider the following works: Rothko's Orange and Yellow, De Kooning's Woman IV, and Johns' Target with Four Faces. Associate each artist or his/her work with the style it most closely represents. How do these works approach issues of representation, content, media, and abstraction?

What will be an ideal response?

Abstract Expressionist Willem De Kooning employed an abstract sense in his gestural oil, enamel, and charcoal painting Woman IV. In his series of paintings titled Women, De Kooning began each painting from a photograph of a beautiful woman; yet, as he worked, they were abstracted into subconscious manifestations. Another form of abstraction that came into prominence was color field painting. Mark Rothko reduced imagery to a large "field" or area of color. His oil on canvas Orange and Yellow, as well as other paintings, has a meditative tranquility that draws in the viewer and invites contemplation. An example of a Neo-Dada style is found in Jasper Johns' Target with Four Faces. Johns combined objects and assorted art media to create a format called assemblage. In Target, Johns chose familiar images and objects in his pieces to create a visual narrative, mixing art with life as he saw it.
