The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Dresdner Sezession''' (Dresden Secession) was an art group aligned with [[German Expressionist|German Expressionism]] founded by [[Otto Schubert]], [[Conrad Felixmüller]] and his pupil [[Otto Dix]] in [[Dresden]], during a period of political and social turmoil in the aftermath of [[World War I]]. The group's activity spanned from 1919 until its final collective exhibition in 1925. During its heyday, the group consisted of some of the most influential and prominent [[expressionism|expressionist]] artists of their generations, including Will Heckrott, [[Lasar Segall]], Otto Schubert and Constantin von Mitschke-Collande, as well as the architect [[Hugo Zehder]] and writers Walter Rheiner, Heinar Schilling, and Felix Stiemer.<ref name="test">((Cite web|url=http://www.moma.org/collection_ge/browse_results.php?criteria=O:AD:E:34110%7CA:AR:E:3&role=3|title = MoMA &#124; German Expressionism))</ref>

Much of what is considered by many art historians((Who|date=June 2012)) to be the true peak of German expressionist art occurred in the first decades of the twentieth century just prior to World War I. German expressionism of that period noted for its humourless and vicious criticism of the German government and upper classes, and was dominated by two major artistic groups known as [[Die Brücke]] (The Bridge), which was highly critical of Germany's increasingly imperialistic aggression and [[Der Blaue Reiter]] (The Blue Rider), which focused much of its commentary on industrialization's impact on the natural world. But the European war brought about the collapse of European society and the major art groups were swiftly broken up and scattered by the onset of the first world war. Those artists who failed to flee [[Europe]] found themselves conscripted to the front lines and many important artist such as [[Franz Marc]] and [[August Macke]] were killed in the trenches. During the war, European art seemed to take an unofficial hiatus amongst the carnage((citation needed|date=June 2012)) and it was not until peace returned in 1918 that a second generation of young German expressionists, many having endured the war through their late teens to early twenties, congregated into a variety of artistic movements opposing the violence of war.

In 1918, Conrad Felixmüller moved to Dresden, where he became the founder and chairman of the group. During his activities in Germany's progressive art and youth movements, Felixmüller worked for various newspapers including ''Die Sichel'' in [[Regensburg]] and ''Rote Erde'' in [[Hamburg]]).<ref>((Cite web|url=http://www.felixmuller-conrad.com/index.shtml|title = Conrad Felixmüller Biography - Infos for Sellers and Buyers))</ref> The Dresdner Sezessionists were heavily influenced by many of the other contemporary German art movements of their day. Many of the members kept a close eye on the flourishing avant-garde art movements such as the [[Dada]]ists.<ref name="mariabuszek.com">((Cite web |url=http://www.mariabuszek.com/kcai/Expressionism/Readings/Brrn2ndGen.pdf# |title=Archived copy |access-date=2012-06-10 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120813083521/http://www.mariabuszek.com/kcai/Expressionism/Readings/Brrn2ndGen.pdf# |archive-date=2012-08-13 |url-status=dead ))</ref> Artists like Dix adopted and appropriated many traits of dada such as the use of collage compositions into his own expressionistic style. Many founding members including Felixmüller, Dix and Schubert were active in a variety of other socially conscious, incendiary groups such the [[November Group (German)|Novembergruppe]].<ref name="mariabuszek.com"/>

The works of this new generation of disillusioned artists placed a much greater emphasis on political and social reformation through [[Pacifism|pacifistic]] means. Rather than adopting the nihilistic social criticism and cynicism of their Die Brücke predecessors, these new expressionist would instead rally around optimistic and utopian beliefs that a happier world built on the ideal of peaceful coexistence could emerge from the ruins of 1918. This dream however would die with the advent of [[World War II]] and the rise of [[the Third Reich]] in the decades to come.

== Later years under the Third Reich ==
Even though the group was officially dissolved in 1925 due to financial difficulties, the members would continue to have active and relatively successful political and artistic careers until the 1930s-40s when many were considered [[Degenerate art|"Degenerates"]] by the newly formed Nazi Government and declared enemies of the state. Under antimodernist [[Alfred Rosenberg]], many forms of modern art including Impressionism, Abstract, [[Cubism]], Dada and Expressionism were declared illegal in the German state in preference for more realistic [[classicism|classical]] styles.((cn|date=August 2022)) This legislation led to an aggressive and oppressive smear campaign in order to curb and stamp out modern art. Suddenly Felixmüller, Dix and the rest of the former secessionists found their studios being raided by the [[Gestapo]] and their paintings burned in the streets. Many artists considered  lost their jobs at universities and museums and were forbidden from painting under threat of imprisonment. The few Jewish members, like the Brazilian-Lithuanian artist Segall, faced particularly harsh persecution and quickly emigrated from Germany; Segall himself moved to Brazil.<ref>((Cite web|url=https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/judaica/ejud_0002_0018_0_17954.html|title = Segall, Lasar))</ref>
