2. Expressionism
• Expressionism is an art movement that came into
being when artists became more concerned with
expressing their feeling on an occurrence or object
than with creating a photo realistic painting.
Expressionism occurred mostly in Germany and
sometimes it is called “German Expressionism”
instead. Expressionist artists used exaggerated
colors, aggressive brush strokes, exaggeration and
distortion to paint.
