Expressionism
Expressionism is a modernist movement, initially in poetry and painting, originating in Northern Europe around the beginning of the 20th century. Its typical trait is to present the world solely from a subjective perspective, distorting it radically for emotional effect in order to evoke moods or ideas.

Tailor
A tailor is a person who makes or alters clothing, particularly in men's clothing. The Oxford English Dictionary dates the term to the thirteenth century. History Although clothing construction goes back to prehistory, there is evidence of tailor shops in Ancient Greece and Rome, as well as tailoring tools such as irons and shears. The profession of tailor in Europe became formalized in the High Middle Ages through the establishment of guilds. Tailors' guilds instituted a system of masters, journeymen, and apprentices. Guild members established rules to limit competition and establish quality standards. In 1244, members of the tailor's guild in Bologna established statutes to govern their profession and required anyone working as a tailor to join the guild. In England, the Statute of Artificers, passed in 1563, included the profession of tailor as one of the trades that could be entered only by serving a term of apprenticeship, typically seven years.

New Secession
The New Secession (german: Neue Secession) was an association of expressionist artists organizing joint exhibitions in Berlin 1910–1914. The New Secession, initially led by Georg Tappert and Max Pechstein, was formed after 27 expressionistic works of art had been excluded from a 1910 exhibition of the Berlin Secession. The first exhibition of the New Secession was advertised as showing artists "rejected by the Berlin Secession 1910", but the group was also joined by artists who were not former Berlin Secession members. The New Secession helped introducing expressionism in Germany. Besides Berlin expressionists, the New Secession had members from Die Brücke still living in Dresden until 1911, members from Munich, who would later form Der Blaue Reiter, as well as members from other places in Europe. The fourth exhibition of the New Secession opened mid November 1911 and was a success, but at the same time the group started to fall apart. When Max Pechstein was not reelected as ...
