Post-expressionism is a term coined by the German art critic Franz Roh to describe a variety of movements in the post-war art world which were influenced by expressionism but defined themselves through rejecting its aesthetic.

Although Roh originally meant the term ' Magic Realism ' to be more or less synonymous with Neue Sachlichkeit, the artists identified by Hartlaub as ' classicists ' later became associated with Roh's term.

' Magic Realism ' for Roh, as a reaction to expressionism, meant to declare “ the autonomy of the objective world around us was once more to be enjoyed ; the wonder of matter that could crystallize into objects was to be seen anew .” With the term, he was emphasizing the “ magic ” of the normal world as it presents itself to us — how, when we really look at everyday objects, they can appear strange and fantastic.

The third movement that is important to include in post-expressionism, and which Roh excluded, is the reaction to Flemish expressionism, as opposed to strains of German expressionism and Italian futurism.
