During the first two decades of the 20th century, many artists famously experimented with nonrepresentational expression. Taking cues from ideas hinted by artists such as El Greco, Goya, Van Gogh and Munch, Expressionists sought to transform reality rather than depict it in any sort of literal manner. Egon Schiele, Max Beckmann, Paul Klee, and Wassily Kandinsky are among its most significant proponents. 96p.
