The New Museum's latest exhibition explores the evolving definition of humanity through the lens of technological advancement and ancestral wisdom. The show juxtaposes the anxieties of modern machine labor—exemplified by Simon Denny’s Amazon worker cage—with Indigenous epistemologies and animist traditions that offer alternative ways of inhabiting the world. By featuring artists like Jaider Esbell and Santiago Yahuarcani, the exhibition highlights how hybridity and relationality can resist the rigid hierarchies of Western modernity.
The New Museum in New York has reopened after two years with a major expansion designed by OMA / Shohei Shigematsu and Rem Koolhaas, doubling its size to 60,000 additional square feet. The inaugural exhibition, “New Humans: Memories of the Future,” curated by Massimiliano Gioni, features over 800 objects by more than 200 artists, scientists, and designers across three main floors. The show explores how concepts of the human have evolved in response to technological innovation over the past century, with thematic chapters such as “Reproductive Futures” and a site-specific sculpture by Klára Hosnedlová in the new Atrium Stair.
