Albert Bloch made this painting, Night V, with what looks like oil paint worked into a frenzy of expression. It's all about color, right? How the reds and blacks smear and smudge into each other, creating this weird, uneasy feeling. Looking at the surface, it's like he attacked the canvas, smearing and layering to build this crazy, dark atmosphere. See how the path winds its way into the darkness? It’s like a metaphor for something, right? The unknown, maybe? This reminds me of some of the German Expressionists, like Kirchner, who were also into using color to express intense emotions. It's like they were all part of this big conversation about how to make feelings visible. And, ultimately, I think that’s what this painting does. It makes you feel something, even if you can't quite put your finger on what it is.
