Generation D / Games & Quizzes

Network Hunt: follow only explicit edges.

Find gallery, cooperative, exhibition, and influence connections without inventing links from proximity.

Learning objective

Check the record, then inspect the evidence.

Follow explicit source-backed AEU relationship edges while distinguishing gallery showing, association, cooperative membership, and influence from mere proximity.

Method: Every correct answer corresponds to one explicit relationship record with source IDs. The game never creates inferred edges.

Boundary: Shared gallery, critic, exhibition, place, or style does not by itself prove membership, representation, or influence.

Accessibility: Every question uses native radio inputs, visible text choices, per-question feedback, and a no-JavaScript evidence/answer disclosure. No conclusion depends on color, drag-and-drop, timing, or pointer-only input.

Question set

5 evidence checks

Immediate feedback is per-question only. This page does not compute or persist an overall score.

Question 1
Which artist does AEU explicitly record Betty Parsons Gallery as having shown?

Use the gallery_showed_artist edge, not general New York proximity.

Choose an answer, then check it against the stored evidence.

Reveal answer + evidence

Stored answer: Jackson Pollock

The Betty Parsons archival source supports a gallery_showed_artist edge to Jackson Pollock. This is exhibition/showing evidence, not a blanket representation claim.

Question 2
Who is explicitly recorded as a member of the Tanager Gallery cooperative?

Cooperative membership is a distinct relationship type in AEU.

Choose an answer, then check it against the stored evidence.

Reveal answer + evidence

Stored answer: Perle Fine

AEU stores a source-backed artist_member_of_gallery_cooperative edge for Perle Fine and Tanager Gallery. It does not infer that status for nearby artists.

Question 3
Which artist has a documented Kootz Gallery relationship in this edge?

The edge is archival/documentary; it does not automatically mean exclusive representation.

Choose an answer, then check it against the stored evidence.

Reveal answer + evidence

Stored answer: Hans Hofmann

The Kootz Gallery source supports a gallery_documented_artist_relationship edge to Hans Hofmann. AEU keeps that wording distinct from generic represented_by semantics.

Question 4
Which artist is the target of AEU's source-backed influence edge from Howard Mehring?

Only directly sourced influence edges are eligible; shared style or exhibition context is insufficient.

Choose an answer, then check it against the stored evidence.

Reveal answer + evidence

Stored answer: Jackson Pollock

The Smithsonian American Art Museum source supports the explicit Howard Mehring → Jackson Pollock influence edge used here. AEU does not derive additional influence edges from resemblance.

Question 5
Which gallery is explicitly associated with Joan Mitchell in this AEU edge?

Association is evidence of a documented gallery connection, not automatic membership or exclusive representation.

Choose an answer, then check it against the stored evidence.

Reveal answer + evidence

Stored answer: Stable Gallery

The Stable Gallery archival source supports this association. AEU deliberately keeps gallery association separate from representation, cooperative membership, and influence.

Recommendations use ICU's bounded public graph. AEU source relationships keep documented fact, editorial mapping, contextual proximity, and interpretation distinct; proximity never becomes an influence claim.
