Summary: Expressionism was an early 20th-century art movement that focused on expressing intense emotions and inner experiences rather than depicting physical reality accurately. Artists used exaggerated forms, distorted figures, and bold, often unnatural colors to convey feelings such as anxiety, fear, and alienation. Originating mainly in Germany, Expressionism reflected the psychological tension of the modern world, especially in the years surrounding World War I. The movement had a lasting impact on modern art by emphasizing personal emotion and subjective vision over realism.
