World War I sparked a new purpose for Expressionism's bold colors and irregular angles.

Artists initially supported the war, but their optimism was destroyed by the front lines.

After the war, artists saw the city as a battlefield, struggling with the devastating effects on their collective psyche.

Expressionist artists sought to depict the world as they felt it, rather than how it appeared, reviving the authenticity of art.

The term Expressionism was coined by Czech art historian Antonin Matejcek in 1910, denoting the opposite of Impressionism.

The Nazi party suppressed Expressionist art, declaring it 'degenerate' and confiscating many works, but the movement's legacy lives on.
