The New Museum presenting an exhibition that investigates gender as a tool and a weapon.

On the view from September 27th to January 21st, the new exhibition is yet another statement of the New Museum’s commitment to urgent ideas. It gathers more than 40 intergenerational artists, who, working across a variety of mediums and genres, will explore the place of gender in contemporary art. The participating artists work with film, video, performance, painting, sculpture, and photography and represent multiple points of view, pushing more inclusive expressions of identity. 

It is not the first exhibition for the New Museum with regard to gender: Extended Sensibilities(1982), Difference1984), Homo Video (1986), Bad Girls(1994) are just four notable examples.

新博物馆呈现一场以性别作为工具和武器进行调查的展览。

展出时间为9月27日到来年1月21日。这一新的展览是新博物馆专注于急迫点子的又一宣言。它聚集了超过40位代际艺术家。这些艺术家从事各种各样的媒体和题材，将探索性别在当代艺术中的地位。参与的艺术家创作电影，视频，表演，绘画，雕塑和摄影，并呈现多样观点，推动更加包容性的身份表达。

这不是新博物馆就性别主题展开的第一次展览。拓展情感（1982），差别（1984），同性视频（1986），坏女孩（1994）是其中四个值得关注的例子。
