Found­ed in 1977, the New Museum is a center for exhibitions, information, and documentation about living art­ists from around the world. From its beginnings as a one-room office on Hudson Street to the inauguration of its first freestanding building on the Bowery designed by SANAA in 2007, the New Museum continues to be a place of experimentation and a hub of new art and new ideas.

Meet Alison Kuo 👋 the New Museum's latest Artist-in-Residence. Kuo makes sculptures from found objects and creates performances that tell stories about the Asian diaspora experience. She is a community arts organizer in Manhattan’s Chinatown and a second-generation immigrant.

🗓️ Join us next Thursday June 25 from 6:30-8:30pm for a conversation with Kuo and art historian William Ma. Kuo will discuss her new performance work in development, her related research and ongoing training in Cantonese Opera, and her engagement with the people, community life, and material culture of Manhattan’s Chinatown.

New Humans: From Museum to Screen continues this week with David Cronenberg's "eXistenZ" (1999) and Tishan Hsu’s "emergent mesh" (2025) screening at Metrograph on Friday 6/19 and Saturday 6/20.

"eXistenZ" centers around a virtual reality game designer is hunted by extremists who believe her new game threatens reality itself. In Cronenberg's film, virtual reality is indistinguishable from the real world (precisely what makes it dangerous).

"emergent mesh," a real-time video produced in a game engine, explores a completely different vision. The world it presents is an unsettling landscape of abstracted textures animated by miniature screen-like shapes.

You can experience more of Hsu's work at the New Museum as part of the exhibition "New Humans: Memories of the Future." 🤖

Did someone say dance? 🕺🪩

Artists Lavinia Schulz and Walter Holdt created a series of fantastical, futuristic costumes—hybrid artworks synthesizing dance, fashion, and music. 🎶 The insect-like Maskenfigur "Toboggan Mann" (1923) is one of their many designs constructed out of materials like wood, leather, rope, metal, and cardboard, and topped by a large mask shaped like a bug’s head. 🦟

Feeling the itch to move? Join performer and choreographer Leslie Cuyjet for a Movement Workshop on Thursday, June 11 from 6:30–8pm! No prior dance or movement experience is required and all are welcome. Get tickets ➡️ https://www.newmuseum.org/event/06-11-26/
