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. Antony Vivis Includes Index. Fine Arts 709.0404 VOG 810908522 PK-LaGCW 260119
