Artists - Paintings in the Geometric Expression

Geometric Expressionism aims to use geometry to constrain emotion and faciliate a different way of considering a concept. For example, there is emotion in Picasso's cubist paintings, but it is a restrained kind of emotion, almost like looking at a woman's tears in an intellectual way. Ironically, this can give a sense of enhanced emotional intensity. Because the emotion is constrained, tension builds and there is a desire for a catharthic release. Such tension was an unintended side-effect of cubism, which was primarily an experinment in perspective. On the other hand, the tension is the primary focus of Geometric Expressionism.
