Excited People




Been thinking about German Expressionism some, lately.
It was a particular topic of interest, when I was schoolin'...


This is a painting by Emil Nolde.
Not sure I would exactly lump him in with the whole German Expressionist camp for any reason beyond that of convenience.
There is some overlap I guess, but he was kinda his own deal.


Woodcuts from that camp may be my favorite, on an aesthetic level, but they were all painting and experimenting with other media.
Nolde always had it, for me, with color in his painting...


I might need a museum day, soon.
This is a bit of a ramble.
Looking at art is cool...
