Book Description
This groundbreaking examination of the cultural exchange between early 20th century French and German artists illuminates new ways of understanding the development of Expressionism. Although the Expressionist movement is widely considered to have arisen out of a German aesthetic, it was actually as much a result of German artists' exposure to artists living and working in France, such as van Gogh, Seurat, Gauguin, Cezanne, Matisse, Picasso, and Braque. In fact, in its early days, Expressionism was assigned no specific nationality at all. This fascinating book focuses on the key exhibitions, galleries, and museum directors that helped disseminate styles and techniques of revolutionary French artists throughout Germany. Included here are French masterpieces seen not only by German artists in Paris but also in important galleries, exhibitions, and private collections in Berlin, Dresden, Munich, Weimar, and other cities. More than 100 paintings and works on paper are grouped to encourage an understanding of artistic influence and interchange. The volume also reflects new scholarship on issues of French-German relations and contributes to our understanding of the ways the visual arts are influenced by ideas of national identity and cultural heritage."

Book Description
This book presents new research on the histories and legacies of the German Expressionist group Blaue Reiter, the founding force behind modernist abstraction. For the first time Blaue Reiter is subjected to a variety of novel inter-disciplinary perspectives, ranging from a philosophical enquiry into its language and visual perception to analyses of its gender dynamics, its reception at different historical junctures throughout the twentieth century and its legacies for post-colonial aesthetic practices. The volume offers a new perspective on familiar aspects of Expressionism and abstraction, taking seriously the inheritance of modernism for the twenty-first century in ways that will help to recalibrate the field of Expressionist studies for future scholarship. Blaue Reiter still matters, the contributors argue, because the legacies of abstraction are still being debated by artists, writers, philosophers and cultural theorists today.

Book Description
One of the most visually striking traditions in cinema, for too long Expressionism has been a neglected critical category of research in film history and aesthetics. The fifteen essays in this anthology remedies this by revisiting key German films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) and Nosferatu (1922), and also provide original critical research into more obscure titles like Nerven (1919) and The Phantom Carriage (1921), films that were produced in the silent and early sound era in countries ranging from France, Sweden and Hungary, to the United States and Mexico.An innovative and wide-ranging collection, Expressionism in the Cinema re-canonizes the classical Expressionist aesthetic, extending the critical and historical discussion beyond pre-existing scholarship into comparative and interdisciplinary areas of film research that reach across national boundaries.

Book Description
Dieser Band geht vernachlässigten Verbindungslinien zwischen Frankreich und dem deutschen Expressionismus nach. Andreas Kramer belegt Einflësse der französischen Avantgarde auf die Formen entgrenzter Lyrik im Expressionismus; Rémy Colombat arbeitet die Schwächen des Versuchs heraus, den Expressionismus als Spielart einer poetischen Moderne zu interpretieren, die sich auf den französischen Symbolismus zurëckfëhren läßt; Elza Adamowicz zeigt, wie französische Zugänge zu Wassily Kandinsky um 1930-1950 die expressionistische Dimension seines Werks tendenziell ausblenden; Eric Robertson weist deutsch-französische Aspekte unterschätzter Verbindungen zwischen Expressionismus und Dadaismus nach; Susan Tebbutt hebt regionalistische Trends bei Paul Gauguin und Kandinsky vor dem Hintergrund zeitgenössischer Bestimmungen des "Exotischen" hervor; Robert Vilain stellt Ansichten von Expressionisten ëber Voltaire in ihren kulturgeschichtlichen Kontext; Klaus H. Kiefer fragt nach den Überschneidungen französischer und expressionistischer Impulse in multikulturellen bzw. -lingualen Projekten von Eugene Jolas; und Frank Krause analysiert einen vergessenen Fall der frankophonen Rezeption von Georg Kaiser.
