The Gesamtkunstwerk—the total artwork—became the ideal for artists. Expressionism in Art and Film traces this crossing of genre boundaries, outlining mutual influences between painting, graphics and film. Exaggerated figures, strong contrast and distorted perspective pervaded all three mediums, reflecting the tremendous angst of the early 20th century’s social upheavals. Social critique also figured centrally in the movement, in caricatured depictions of modern men and women. This volume highlights these elements of Expressionism, drawing parallels between art and film. Artists Erich Heckel, Emil Nolde, Paula Modersohn-Becker, Alexander Kanoldt, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Otto Mueller figure here, as well as directors Robert Wiene, F.W. Murnau and Ernst Lubitsch.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHardcover\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e240 pages | 130 color images\u003cbr\u003eText in English and German\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSilvana Editoriale, 2022\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e9.5 x 1 x 11 inches\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eISBN 9788836650361\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eExpressionism, Art and Film\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vendor-unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44889446482088,"sku":"9788836650361","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0175\/8594\/files\/Expressionism-in-Art-and-Film.jpg?v=1694025461","url":"https:\/\/neue-galerie-design-shop.myshopify.com\/products\/expressionism-in-art-and-film","provider":"Neue Galerie Design Shop \u0026 Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
