Van Gogh. Fauvism in France, expressionism in Germany and lyrical abstraction in the early 20th century were all inspired by his main role in the creative process, the free expression of inner feelings, the relatively independent value grasp of consciousness and form, and the absorption and extraction of oriental painting factors in oil painting, thus forming their own different painting schools. Van Gogh abandoned all the acquired knowledge, ignored the dogma cherished by the academic school, and even forgot his own reason. In his eyes, there is only a vibrant natural landscape, and he is intoxicated with it and forgets things. He regards everything in the world as an inseparable whole, and he embraces everything with all his body and mind. Van Gogh became a highly personalized painter very late, only eight years before his death.
