🎂 Happy birthday to our founder, Marcia Tucker!
When she started the New Museum in 1977, it was with a vision: a space for living artists, and for ideas that didn’t quite fit elsewhere.
Nearly 50 years later, that mission still drives what we do.
"There’s a parallel dimension to my work that’s simply about what it means to inhabit a body—a vehicle, a flesh suit."

New Museum’s got something cooking—an OMA-designed restaurant that’s as much about the food as it is about the design. The Oberon Group and Julia Sherman are behind the menu, with a zero-waste philosophy and plates that’ll make you feel like you’re eating art.

Hey, just a heads-up: the New Museum is about to expand—like, really expand.
Fall 2025, we’re opening up a massive new building designed by OMA / Shohei Shigematsu and Rem Koolhaas. More room for art, more spaces for creators, and more reasons to come through.

It is with immense gratitude that we honor the legacy of Richard Flood, who served as Chief Curator at the New Museum from 2005-2019.
His groundbreaking exhibitions and visionary work continue to inspire.
We celebrate his contributions and extend our condolences to his loved ones.
🚨 Big Moves 🚨
Tourmaline has been making waves for years through art and activism. From the 2018 "Trigger" exhibition here at the New Museum, to the latest Whitney Biennial, she’s always pushed boundaries. Now, her Marsha P. Johnson bio drops in May 2025. Exciting things ahead! 🙌

Bruce Nauman, "No, No, New Museum," 1987.
🚨LAST CHANCE to see "SILENCE=DEATH" at 250 Bowery—closing Feb 2!
Commissioned by the New Museum in 1987 & created by ACT UP, this powerful symbol of resistance is back, in partnership with Visual AIDS for #DayWithoutArt 2024.
Silence in the face of injustice is NEVER the answer.
Jaune Quick-to-See Smith’s work has a way of flipping history on its head, centering Native identities. We were proud to include her in "The Decade Show"—a pivotal show that brought together artists addressing identity in the ‘80s.
Rest easy, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith. Your impact will never fade.
Chris E. Vargas is in Frieze’s "Top Ten Shows in the US in 2024" list, and it's well-earned!
His 2018 New Museum exhibition reimagined Stonewall, reshaping how we think about history.
Now, "Scientia Sexualis" at ICA LA is taking it even further. So yeah, Frieze is spot-on, and we're here for it
This isn’t just another artist talk.
