AI overview
Expressionism is a modernist movement that started in Northern Europe around 1900, primarily in poetry and painting, where artists deliberately distort reality from their personal perspective to create powerful emotional effects. Rather than trying to show the world as it actually looks, Expressionist artists aim to convey the inner feelings and meanings of emotional experience.

L'Espressionismo fu un movimento artistico europeo che si diffuse nel primo ventennio del Novecento inizialmente in Germania, come reazione al naturalismo e all'impressionismo e influenzato da artisti come van Gogh, Ensor, Munch e Gauguin e dalla corrente del fauvismo; si sviluppò in diverse correnti, accomunate dall'assenza di regole e canoni, come quella del gruppo Die Brücke (formato da artisti come Kirchner, Nolde, Kokoschka) o quella dal gruppo Der blaue Reiter (formato da Kandinskij, Paul Klee, Franz Marc e altri).
