The aesthetic reaction to a work of art depends on the immediate environment, and true appreciation of art requires that it be presented in an environment that allows for lengthy, solitary deliberation. Hence it is unfortunate that art museums have recently invented the notion of the “art-show event,” for which historically important, rarely seen works are collected into a show that is then heavily advertised and brings in huge crowds.

The statements above, if true, most strongly support which one of the following?

(A) People who really love and understand art tend to avoid museum art-show events.

(B) The more time one spends and the fewer people that are around, the more one will like a work of art.

(C) Most of the people who go to museum art-show events do not know how to appreciate art and fail to realize what they are missing.

(D) Art museum directors are forced to put on art-show events in order to raise money.

(E) Museum art-show events do not facilitate proper appreciation of art.
