Describe some of the stylistic conventions associated with the expressionist art movement. Post some additional examples of Constructivist art.

In expressionist art, colour in particular can be highly intense and non-naturalistic, brushwork is typically free and paint application tends to be generous and highly textured. Other forms that distinguish Expressionism (an international movement in art, architecture, literature, and performance that flourished between 1905 and 1920, especially in Germany and Austria) were extreme angles, flattened forms, garish colours, and distorted views. Expressionist art tends to be emotional and sometimes mystical.
