What is the difference between expressionism and cubism?

Answer 1

Agreed, expressionism is nearly always going to be abstract, where as cubism may be "abstracted" but depicts multiple viewpoints of a subject. Thus is the hallmark of cubism.

Answer 2

You are right in a way but I think modern art is more intellectually motivated. Read what the encyclopedia says.... Romanticism might best be described as anticlassicism. A reaction against Neoclassicism, it is a deeply-felt style which is individualistic, exotic, beautiful and emotionally wrought. Although Romanticism and Neoclassicism were philosophically opposed, they were the dominant European styles for generations, and many artists were affected to a lesser or greater degree by both. Artists might work in both styles at different times or even combine elements, creating an intellectually Romantic work using a Neoclassical visual style, for example. Great artists closely associated with Romanticism include Caspar David Friedrich, John Constable, J.M.W. Turner and William Blake. In the North America, the leading Romantic movement was the Hudson River School of dramatic landscape painting. Obvious successors of Romanticism include the Pre-Raphaelite movement and the Symbolist painters. But Impressionism, and through it almost all of 20th century art, is also firmly rooted in the individualism of the Romantic tradition.

Answer 3

Expressionisme is painting feelings. Cubism is about painting an object as 'completely' as possible.

There is much more to it but it covers the core.
