 Despite hosting a large number of essays on art criticism, and in contrast to the style of avant-garde journals such as "Contimporanul", "Gândirea" rarely featured Expressionist graphics.Notably, in 1924, the editors chose to illustrate an issue with a print by the proto-Expressionist Edvard Munch, commented upon by Tudor Vianu.Nevertheless, later in the same year, painter Francisc Şirato used "Gândirea" as a means to popularize his essays on "Visual Arts in Romania", in which he publicized his break with Expressionist influences and his newfound interest in Romanian specificity in local art and folklore.
