Step into the charged atmosphere of early 20th-century Germany, where art became both rebellion and revelation. Expressionism was not about painting what the eye could see, but what the heart and mind could feel—raw, distorted, and unfiltered. From the jagged brushstrokes of Kirchner and Nolde to the haunting visions of Kollwitz, this movement broke tradition to capture the turmoil of modern life, the fractures of war, and the depths of the human spirit. The ART Channel brings you this exploration of Expressionism’s dark beauty and lasting influence, a journey into a world where truth is found not in realism, but in emotion.
