The birth of Expressionism brought forth a visual language that could depict the unfiltered essence of the human condition. Artists painted the raw emotions of joy, anguish, love, and despair, often focusing on distorted figures, exaggerated forms, and dramatic compositions. Through this powerful style, they aimed to break free from the shackles of realism and reveal the inner truths that lie beneath the surface.
Famous artists such as Edvard Munch, Wassily Kandinsky, Egon Schiele and Ernst Ludwig Kirchner embraced Expressionism, crafting profound artworks that resonate with viewers even today. Their canvases pulsate with energy, inviting us to explore the depths of our own emotions and contemplate the complexities of existence.
Out of the Expressionist movement, other art forms blossomed, each with its own distinct identity. Surrealism, born from the depths of the subconscious mind, sought to transcend reality and merge dreams with reality. While both Expressionism and Surrealism delve into the realm of the subconscious, Expressionism focuses on expressing raw emotions and capturing the essence of the human experience, whereas Surrealism explores the fusion of reality and the fantastical.
In the realm of Indian art, Expressionism found its own unique voice, evolving from the rich tapestry of cultural influences. It drew inspiration from the vivid colors, spiritual depth, and passionate narratives of traditional Indian art forms.

Some of the modern Indian artists who used and were influenced by Expressionism include F.N. Souza (explored themes of human suffering, religious symbolism, and social commentary, with a distinctive use of line and color), M.F. Husain (his expressive and dynamic style encompassed a wide range of subjects, from mythological figures to socio-political issues, creating powerful and thought-provoking artworks), Amrita Sher-Gil (her expressive portraits and evocative depictions of rural life captured the essence of the Indian experience), K.H. Ara (characterized by bold brushwork and vibrant colors, explored the beauty and simplicity of everyday life, often depicting rural landscapes and village scenes), Ram Kumar (depicted the shifting moods of cities, reflecting the isolation and alienation of modern existence), Akbar Padamsee (characterized by bold and striking imagery, conveyed a sense of mystery and introspection) and Tyeb Mehta (captured raw human emotions and depiced the human condition through his art)
