 * expressionism **
 * **a style of painting, music, or drama in which the artist or writer seeks to express emotional experience rather than impressions of the external world. **
 * **Expressionists characteristically //reject traditional ideas of beauty or harmony and use distortion, exaggeration, and other nonnaturalistic devices in order to emphasize and express the inner world of emotion.// **
