This question was previously asked in
CUET PG 2026 Agri-Business Management Question Paper (25-Mar-2026) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)

Analyzing Assertion (A)

Assertion (A) states that Bruno Munari was an inspirational designer who encouraged moving beyond formal conventions and stereotypes. Munari's work is widely recognized for its innovation, playfulness, and experimental approach, often challenging traditional design norms. Therefore, Assertion (A) is correct.

Analyzing Reason (R)

Reason (R) claims that Picasso described Bruno Munari as ‘the new Leonardo’. While Picasso greatly admired Munari's talent, the specific quote "the new Leonardo" is often attributed in discussions about Munari's genius. For the purpose of this question, we accept the statement as contextually correct. Therefore, Reason (R) is correct.

Evaluating the Relationship Between (A) and (R)

Although both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are factually correct statements about Bruno Munari, Reason (R) does not directly explain Assertion (A). Picasso's description highlights Munari's broad genius and talent, comparable to Leonardo da Vinci. However, it doesn't explain the specific reason *why* Munari encouraged designers to break conventions and stereotypes. The description is an acknowledgment of his overall brilliance, not a direct cause or explanation for his approach to design conventions.

Therefore, both statements are correct, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

Conclusion

Based on the analysis, the most appropriate answer is that both (A) and (R) are correct, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

Selected Option: Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
