Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Nietzsche believed that both Apollonian and Dionysian art were necessary because our nature is both individual and transpersonal. Apollonian art represents order, clarity, and rationality while Dionysian art represents chaos, passion, and irrationality. Both aspects are necessary for a full understanding and expression of human nature.
