The Pocket Expressionism

An introduction to Expressionism, the early twentieth-century art movement. Expressionism was a revolutionary modernist art movement that sought to release the emotions from deep within the creator rather than depicting the world outside. Born of nineteenth-century anxieties over cities, machines and conflict, this modern art form evolved into a fierce instrument of social commentary, producing some of the world's most famous paintings.
