Photo Gallery Expressionism in Essen
The Museum Folkwang in Essen is hosting an exhibition of Fauvism, an art movement that flourished in France in the early 20th century. The show celebrates the group's signature brilliant colors and explores its ties to German and Russian Expressionism.
Two years of preparation went into the Folkwang Museums's exhibition "The Ecstasy of Color -- Munch, Matisse and the Expressionists."
