Expressionism in art - movement that emerged in the XX century in Europe.Translated from the Latin «expressio» means "expression."This trend was so popular in the twenties, that capture all the art direction and clearly manifested in painting, literature, music, theater, architecture and cinema.After all, events in Europe do not bode well.The war, the rapid growth of the industry and a sharp change in the welfare of the people.During this time, many changed outlook, and new discoveries in science allowed to look at the world through different eyes.Therefore creative people just could not stay away and through their work demonstrated relationship to the world.
Expressionism painting was based on subjective feelings and fantasies arising from the authors of works.Artists, through their work to transmit their emotional state, which is characterized by spiritual confusion, pessimism, despair and petty-bourgeois rebellion.The basic principles of flow was deliberate distortion of the real world, giving the subjects exaggerated and angular forms.Thus, the authors tried to get the audience to empathize, to cause them real fear and negative attitudes towards the cruel reality.
very bright expressionism in painting manifested by his progenitors: a group of German artists of "The Bridge" and "The Blue Rider".And later their successors: V. V. Kandinsky, Vincent van Gogh, James Ensor, E. Barlach, P. Picasso, Edvard Munch, M.Chagall, P.Klee and others - tried in his dramatic works express their attitude to what is happening,some of the work had a clear anti-war orientation (J. Gross, O. Dix).
all the vices of being ugly and insoluble contradictions of reality evoked expressionist feelings of anxiety, anger, disgust, they were transferred onto his canvases using hypertrophied forms, angular lines and warped, dark scales, rough and quick strokes.Expressionism paintings amplified choice of contrasting colors, vivid expression of forms in order to trigger the emotions of the audience, do not let them stay indifferent.Simple scenes of everyday life were passed in the light of the vision of artists and just rolls emotions.Expressionism painting is most clearly gave a presentation about the mood of the time, of methane and human suffering.The perception of the world through the artistic and personal view has allowed artists to have a conversation with the audience through such unusual art displays.
Expressionism in painting - it is an opportunity to demonstrate through their emotions related to anything.With a subtle and sensitive nature, the artists are trying with the help of artistic images to convey your vision and experience to the audience.The experiments with color and form, finding new ways of continuing in our days.It can therefore be attributed to this area of work a similar direction, but not in pure form but as a symbiosis of new and interesting directions.Making people truly empathize - this is not an easy task.Since all the complexity of life and the evils of society still do not have the oppressive reality of the situation, on the grounds that it was revived in the direction of art.
