Abstract Expressionism, the first American art movement with worldwide influence, arose in New York City during and after WWII.

The abstract expressionist painters used non-representational forms to spontaneously express unconscious psychic material. This release of creativity from the unconscious mind was a visual and cultural earthquake after the social realism of the 1930s.

The roots of abstract expressionism lay in the work of the German expressionists, Surrealism, Futurism, Bauhaus and Cubism.
