PCAI collection artists Sophia Al-Maria and Mika Rottenberg

at the NEW MUSEUM

PCAI is glad to announce that  PCAI collection artists Sophia Al-Maria and Mika Rottenberg will participate in New Humans: Memories of the Future, the first exhibition to span the entirety of the expanded New Museum, opening on March 21, 2026.

New Humans: Memories of the Future is curated by Massimiliano Gioni, Edlis Neeson Artistic Director; Gary Carrion-Murayari, Kraus Family Senior Curator; Vivian Crockett, Allen and Lola Goldring Curator; and Madeline Weisburg, Senior Assistant Curator; with Calvin Wang, Curatorial Assistant.

Bringing together more than 200 international artists, writers, architects, scientists, and filmmakers, New Humans traces a diagonal history of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The exhibition explores moments when dramatic shifts—industrialization, mechanized warfare, automation, artificial intelligence—reshaped not only society but our very conception of the human body and mind.

About New Museum

The New Museum is the only museum in Manhattan exclusively devoted to contemporary art. 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.
