Expressionism Art is all about how artists seek to depict not the objective reality but rather the subjective emotions that objects and events arouse within a person.

  1. Who started Expressionism Art?
  • Expressionism first started in 1905, when a group of four German architecture students desired to become painters.
  • Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Fritz Bleyl, Karl Schmidt-rottluff and Erich Heckel– formed the group, Die Brucke (the bridge), in the city of Dresden.

2. Expressionism artists have sought to express one’s emotional experience rather than physical reality. Thus, it developed as an Avant-Garde Style before the first world war and remained particularly popular in Berlin (during the Weimar Republic).

4. Its typical trait is to present the world solely from a subjective perspective, distorting it radically for an emotional effect to evoke moods or ideas.

5. Each artist had their way of expressing their emotions in art. That’s what Expressionism is about. The subjects are often distorted or exaggerated.

6. Expressionism is an Abstract Art. Abstraction does not attempt to create meaning but provoking a certain mood or emotion that internally impacts one. Having an artwork brings a momentary feeling of victory.

7. Artists splash vivid pictures with different colours to make unrealistic images that show real strong emotions.

8. As art moments are not restricted to only paintings, Expressionism in Literature was also prominent. Literature saw expressions against various social and domestic issues within the Pre-WWI European Society. These included dealing the topics like materialism, prosperity, urbanizations and also the domination of the families.

9. When National Socialists gained power in Germany, Expressionism was rejected and condemned. Many works produced in the style of the movement were burned and destroyed. Such was its influence on the public!

Expressionist artists attempt to leave an impact rather than portraying things as it is. Each artist had their unique way of expressing emotions–as simple as that–that’s Expressionism.
