L'Art Moderne was a weekly review of the arts and literature published in Brussels from March 1881 until the outbreak of the First World War in August 1914.

[1] It was established by a number of lawyers based in Brussels who felt the need for a regular overview of the cultural life of the capital.

[2] The leading figures in the founding group were Edmond Picard and Octave Maus.

[3] The poet and art critic Émile Verhaeren (also a lawyer) soon became a frequent contributor.

L'Art Moderne was closely involved in promoting two fin de siècle Belgian art movements, Les XX and La Libre Esthétique.
