експресионизам

Movement that began about 1910 and that has application in painting, music and literature as well as drama. The term was first used in 1901 by Auguste Herve to works he'd painted in reaction against impressionism. The heyday of expressionist theatre in America was in the 1920's and 30's and was often a theatre of political and social protest.
