Learning to Look | Expressionism
Born in the final years of the 19th century amid rapid industrialization, Expressionism became the first major art movement of the 20th century. Building on key Post-Impressionist innovations—Paul Gauguin’s liberated color, Vincent van Gogh’s energetic brushwork, and Paul Cézanne’s structural approach to composition—Expressionism embraced emotion and intensity as central artistic aims, helping to define a new century. Early pioneers included the French Fauves, led by Henri Matisse, and Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), associated with Wassily Kandinsky.
