The modernists distorted shapes and pushed colours to more intense shades. The tremendous social changes of the time were to be depicted with intense colour expressionism! Several Swedish students of Matisse, such as Sigrid Hjertén and Isaac Grünewald, are represented in Moderna Museet's collection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut modernism also took other forms.
