Explanation of correct answer (D):
This answer choice corrects the original Relative Clause error by matching the plural verb use to the plural subject contemporary artists.
I believe the correct answer is A because the subject of the sentence is Matthew Barney, not contemporary artists. Contemporary artists is the object of the preposition, which can never, never, never be the subject of the sentence.
