New Museum to Present Major Exhibition 'New Humans: Memories of the Future' Featuring 15 New Commissions
The New Museum will present the exhibition New Humans: Memories of the Future across its entire space at 235 Bowery in New York. The show features more than 15 new commissions by artists including Ryan Gander, Camille Henrot, Jamian Juliano-Villani, Wangechi Mutu, Hito Steyerl, Alice Wang, and Santiago Yahuarcani. Lead sponsorship is provided by the Daniel Xu & Flora Huang Foundation, with major support from Lonti Ebers, the Amant Foundation Major Exhibitions Fund, and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
The Signal
The scale of the project and number of commissions indicate the New Museum's strategy of prioritizing new production over existing works. For curators and collectors this offers early visibility into how these artists are addressing technology, memory, and speculative futures. Multiple foundation backers also point to continued institutional capacity for large, multi-artist presentations in New York.
