German Expressionism is an artistic movement originating in Germany in the early 20th century, characterized by its emotional intensity and bold use of color, form, and line. It sought to express subjective emotions and experiences rather than objective reality, often with a focus on social or political issues. While it shares some similarities with Surrealism, such as a desire to explore the irrational and subconscious mind, German Expressionism is distinct in its emphasis on personal expression and its rejection of traditional aesthetic values.
