The Impressionists refers mainly to express the nature of what your eyes detect rather than realistic art forms that preceded that period. The expressionist but was more inclined to add a more personal touch to his works of art went further and academic standards that had prevailed in Europe in previous centuries. In many ways, like life-changing technology in the 20th century expressionist artist transformed the art form developed. Perhaps it was this rapid change in the pace of life that inspired Munch Norwegian Expressionist artist to create the famous masterpiece "The Scream".
In any case, it took several decades of expressionist art for greater progress and developed mainly in Europe through the German Expressionist school. This school of this type such as talented artists Schiele and Kandinsky. In many ways, although the art of Kandinsky, despite showing the features of expressionism developed rapidly into a more abstract level on the basis of his theories about numbers and colors.
In fact, the concept behind Expressionism was to capture an emotion through the art and are not necessarily expressed through a figurative image. And this brings us to the question of whether art created by elephants can be considered works of Expressionist art. For this to be true that the elephant would need to be aware of your feelings, because it creates a work of art. Given that this would be difficult to understand directly I think there is no fundamental reason to define elephant art as expression. However, is this also true of our children in five years?
Young children are often not fully aware of thei
r emoti
ons, bu
t we a
ll know very well, they know how to express themselves through their emotions. Therefore, if they had to simultaneously create and paint a picture, then we must assume that the work also contains elements of Expressionist art. So, yeah! Maybe your child is an expressionist artist and should only be encouraged.
