Did expressionism effect abstract art?
Up until expressionism and impressionist art the world was looked at in a structured way. Art tried to make an exact copy of the world. Even when the camera was invented they tried to translate a picture as an exact figure of people or a place. This one reason people look so stiff and structured in early photos they were trying to copy the paintings. When expressionism came it didn't look at the world in this way. It took a different view of the world and was expressive instead of static and structured. At first, it was not considered art and the critics gave bad reviews.

A lot of changes were occurring in nineteenth century Paris (where the movement began), such as the French Revolution and rise of Napoleon and the invention of photography. Realism rejected lofty, dramatic, academic ideals in favor of works depicting the everyday lives of the working class.
