Expressionist Art

EXPRESSIONIST STYLE

While “expressionist” is used to describe any art that avoids naturalism and instead employs a bold use of flattened forms and intense brushwork, Expressionist art formally describes early-20th-century work from Europe that drew on Symbolism and confronted issues such as urbanization and capitalism. Expressionist artists experimented in paintings and prints with skewed perspectives, abstraction and unconventional, bright colors to portray how isolating and anxious the world felt rather than how it appeared. 

Between 1905 and 1920, Austrian and German artists, in particular, were inspired by Postimpressionists such as Paul Gauguin and Vincent van Gogh in their efforts to strive for a new authenticity in their work. In its geometric patterns and decorative details, Expressionist art was also marked by eclectic sources like German and Russian folk art as well as tribal art from Africa and Oceania, which the movement’s practitioners witnessed at museums and world’s fairs.

Groups of artists came together to share and promote the themes now associated with Expressionism, such as Die Brücke (The Bridge) in Dresden, which included Erich Heckel, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Karl Schmidt-Rottluff and investigated alienation and the dissolution of society in vivid color. In Munich, Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), a group led by Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc, instilled Expressionism with a search for spiritual truths. In his iconic painting The Scream, prolific Norwegian painter Edvard Munch conveyed emotional turmoil through his depiction of environmental elements, such as the threatening sky.

Expressionism shifted around the outbreak of World War I, with artists using more elements of the grotesque in reaction to the escalation of unrest and violence. Printmaking was especially popular, as it allowed artists to widely disseminate works that grappled with social and political issues amid this time of upheaval. Although the art movement ended with the rise of Nazi Germany, where Expressionist creators were labeled “degenerate,” the radical ideas of these artists would influence Neo-Expressionism that emerged in the late 1970s with painters like Jean-Michel Basquiat and Francesco Clemente.

Marc Chagall, The Toilette of Tchitchikov, from Dead Souls, 1923–1927

By Marc Chagall

Located in Southampton, NY

This exquisite etching by Marc Chagall (1887–1985), titled La toilette de Tchitchikov (The Toilette of Tchitchikov), originates from the celebrated folio Nicolas Gogol, Les Ames mortes, Eaux-fortes originales de Marc Chagall (Nicolas Gogol, Dead Souls, Original Etchings by Marc Chagall), published by Teriade Editeur, Paris, 1948, and printed by Fort, Impressions artistiques, Paris, under the direction of Louis Fort, 1923–1927. The composition captures Chagalls poetic transformation of gesture and character into a symbolic and dreamlike encounter, infusing the scene with narrative vitality, quiet tension, and psychological nuance. Executed as an etching on velin d’Arches filigrane paper, this work measures 17.764 x 10.827 inches (45.12 x 27.5 cm). Signed in the plate and unnumbered as issued. Printed by Fort, Impressions artistiques, Paris, under the direction of Louis Fort.

Marc Chagall: Catalogue Raisonne Des Livres Illustres. P. Cramer ed., 1995 Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium Provenance: From Nicolas Gogol, Les Ames mortes, Eaux-fortes originales de Marc Chagall (Nicolas Gogol, Dead Souls, Original Etchings by Marc Chagall), published by Teriade Editeur, Paris, 1948 Notes: Excerpted from the folio (translated from French), It was taken from this album, on velin d’Arches filigrane Les Ames mortes, including a suite on japon nacre and non commerce examples reserved for collaborators. All colophons are signed by the artist. About the Publication: Nicolas Gogol, Les Ames mortes, Eaux-fortes originales de Marc Chagall (Nicolas Gogol, Dead Souls, Original Etchings by Marc Chagall) stands among the most important illustrated literary works of the twentieth century. Conceived over several decades and rooted in Chagalls deep emotional connection to Gogols satirical vision of Russian society, the album unites text and image in a profoundly imaginative synthesis. Published by Teriade in 1948 and printed by Fort, Impressions artistiques, Paris, under the direction of Louis Fort, the album embodies the high standards of Parisian printmaking and continues to be regarded as one of the great illustrated works of the twentieth century, admired for its fusion of literature, etching, and the distinctively dreamlike vision of Marc Chagall. About the Artist: Marc Chagall (1887–1985) was a Belarus born French painter, printmaker, and designer whose visionary imagination, radiant color, and deeply poetic symbolism made him one of the most beloved and influential artists of the twentieth century. Rooted in the imagery of his Jewish heritage and the memories of his childhood in Vitebsk, Chagalls art wove together themes of faith, love, folklore, and fantasy with a dreamlike modern sensibility. His unique style merging elements of Cubism, Fauvism, Expressionism, and Surrealism defied categorization, transforming ordinary scenes into lyrical meditations on memory and emotion. Over a prolific career spanning painting, printmaking, stained glass, ceramics, and stage design, Chagall brought an unparalleled poetic sensibility to modern art. His works are held in major museums worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Centre Pompidou, the Tate, and the Guggenheim. The highest price ever paid for a Marc Chagall artwork is approximately 28.5 million USD, achieved in 2017 at Sothebys New York for Les Amoureux (1928). Marc Chagall etching...
