This visceral life: Seeing the world through Expressionist eyes. Sharp angles, strange forms, vivid colors, and distorted perspectives define Expressionism, a twentieth-century movement prioritizing emotion over objective reality. Originating mainly in Germany and Austria, it became a significant international influence in art history. With key groups like Die Brucke (The Bridge) and Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), and prominent figures such as Wassily Kandinsky, Egon Schiele, and Emil Nolde, Expressionists rejected Impressionism, which they viewed as a mere reproduction of the outer world. Instead, they sought to depict raw, visceral experiences of life, emphasizing feelings over appearances. Their works are characterized by intense, non-naturalistic color palettes, loose brushwork, and thick textures, all brimming with emotive force. This introductory book delves into the stylistic tendencies, influences, and significant figures of the movement, exploring the diverse panorama of moods, ideas, and emotions that reflect their quest for authenticity. Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Genre series includes approximately 100 color illustrations with captions, a detailed introduction, a timeline of key political and cultural events, and a selection of important works presented with interpretations and artist biographies.
