1 Answer
Was George Grosz an Expressionist?
Yes, George Grosz was an Expressionist. Born in Berlin, the artist was a major figure in the city’s Dada movement and was pivotal in the development of photomontage. He also became known for his caricatures in the wake of World War I, particularly those that were anti-war and addressed social corruption. He began working in an Expressionist style around this same time, a style he continued to engage with until his death in 1959. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of George Grosz art.
