German expressionism started right before World War I, when Germany was in a state of isolation, so German creativity during that time was acted out essentially in a vacuum. Some of the great German expressionist films to come out of that era were "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari," "Nosferatu," and "The Last Laugh."

It started with James Ensor and a painting called 'Christ's Entry into Brussels' painted in 1888. Next Edvard Munch does 'The Scream' in 1893. Two groups also form in this period in Germany, Die Brücke (The Bridge) and Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider) groups whose work continues into the 1920's. Emil Nolde is another driving force with works done circa 1912. One could argue that the movement hasn't ever really ended.

Expressionism as an art movement started about 1905, simultaneously in France (les Fauves) and Germany (die Brücke). It seems to have been inspired by Vincent Van Gogh and Paul Gauguin.
