Solution
The answer is: Reality
Explanation for each option:
History: Expressionism was not primarily concerned with historical accuracy or depicting historical events. While some works might have historical elements, the main focus was on emotional and psychological experiences.
Feelings: Expressionism was deeply concerned with feelings and emotions. Artists aimed to convey their inner experiences and emotional responses to the world around them.
Reality: Correct. Expressionism often distorted reality to emphasize emotional and psychological states. The movement was more about subjective experience than objective reality.
Intellect: While intellect and thought can play a role in any artistic movement, Expressionism was more focused on raw emotion and mood rather than intellectual or rational representation.
In summary, Expressionism concentrated on the expression of emotion and mood rather than an accurate depiction of reality.
