Franz Roh - Wikipedia
Roh is perhaps best remembered as the critic who coined the term magic realism. But, though the lineage is direct, his magic realism has a very different meaning from the one used to describe the work of writers such as Gabriel García Márquez and Isabel Allende that dominates our current understanding of the term.
Roh coined the oxymoron “magical realism” to describe this new style. Two years earlier, another German art critic, Gustav Hartlaub, had proposed a competing term: “new objectivity” (Neue Sachlichkeit). Roh sought to define post-expressionism as a synthesis of two opposing tendencies: impressionism and expressionism.
