"The Ten" (group of American Jewish artists)

The Ten is a collective of ten prominent American Jewish artists active mainly in the 1980s and early 1990s. They collaborated to promote Jewish culture and address contemporary social issues through diverse artistic media, including painting, sculpture, and multimedia. Their work often explores themes of identity, heritage, and spirituality, blending traditional Jewish symbols with modern artistic expression. The group aimed to challenge stereotypes and foster a broader understanding of Jewish life in America, making their art significant both culturally and socially within the American Jewish community and the broader art world.
