Circa 1905 - 1935

“2 principal groups emerged. The Bridge (Die Brücke) in Dresden and The Blue Rider (Der Blaue Reiter) in Munich, each forming artistic communities w/ aspirations to change art & society.”

The aesthetic development of the movement can be traced to the Saxon Worpswede Group & the Parisian Fauvist movement. It was also influenced by Van Gogh's pioneering expressionist paintings like Wheatfield with Crows, and Starry, Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh

#GEPs typically distort color, scale & space to convey their subjective interpretation abt the objects/scenes they painted. WWI had a huge impact, so 1915 onwards, #GE became a bitter protest move’t as well as a style of modern art.
