Neo-Expressionism
A global revival of expressionist painting that surged in the 1980s.
Neo-expressionism emerged during the late 1970s. The movement is distinguished by its profound subjectivity and the unrefined manipulation of materials. In the United States, notable figures in this movement included Philip Guston and Julian Schnabel, while in Britain, Christopher Le Brun and Paula Rego were prominent representatives. Germany, with its expressionist heritage, saw significant neo-expressionist development, and Italy also played a notable role in this artistic movement.
