Expressionism was an early 20th century art movement characterized by subjective expression over objective reality. Two major German groups were Die Brücke and Der Blaue Reiter. Die Brücke, formed in Dresden in 1905, sought to reject academic styles through emotional use of color and distortion. Key members included Kirchner, Heckel, and Schmidt-Rottluff. Der Blaue Reiter, led by Kandinsky and Franz Marc from 1911-1914, was more focused on abstraction and the spiritual expression of color. Both groups made significant contributions to the development of modern abstract art before being disrupted by World War I.

Or consider these contemporary artists with a minimalist aesthetic:
Sculptor Terence Koh (Canada), painter Carmen Herrera (Cuba), land artist Wolfgang Laib (Germany), installation artist Martina Klein (Germany), sculptor Rachel Whiteread (U.K.), installation artist Lesley Foxcroft (U.K.), and painter and installation artist Daniel Buren (France).

and builds on more complex psychic
structures....Impressions and mental images pass
through his soul as through a filter which rids them of all
substantial accretions to produce their clear essence
[...and] are assimilated and condense into more general
forms, into types, which he transcribes through simple
short-hand formulae and symbols."
