Les XX

Les XX was a group of twenty innovative Belgian artists and designers active from 1883 to 1893. They united to promote modern art and organized exhibitions to showcase their work, including paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts. Their name, meaning "The Twenty" in French, reflected their collective approach to challenging traditional art styles. Les XX helped introduce new artistic ideas, like Impressionism and Art Nouveau, to a broader audience and influenced future generations of artists. Their collaborations fostered creativity and connections within the European art scene during a pivotal time of artistic change.
