Unknown Artist - Boats

The work has a marked expressionist vocation, which tends to emphasize the expression of emotions. Expressionist art seeks to proclaim its moods to the world and flaunt them with passion. Formally, this translates into a summary rendering of the figures, through a very nervous and animated line, as well as the use of a violent color palette. These characteristics are found in the historical avant-garde movements of expressionism: Fauvism and the Die Brucke movement in Germany.

The synthesis of the subject matter, in this work, is taken to its extreme. The main subjects, the two boats, are drawn with a bold line that follows a twisting trajectory. Everything is extremely flat and elementary, elevating the painting to a highly essential and primary expressive plane. The stylistic vigor is further enhanced by the dynamic and gestural pictorial style, with broad strokes of color constructing a complex surface.

The artist behind this painting has a pictorial language strongly influenced by the extremely essential and synthetic tones of the German avant-garde group Die Brucke. He is also characterized by a highly gestural pictorial style that makes his works even more expressive.
