DKNY AND NEW MUSEUM CELEBRATE THEIR NEW PARTNERSHIP FOR « THE NEW WOMEN’S PROJECT »
DKNY and New Museum celebrate a new partnership proving their long-standing advocacy to support women artists and creativity. The partnership is named « The New Women’s Project », highlighting the engagement to women independence of both institutions over the past thirty-eight years. Indeed, while on one side the New Museum commits to provide support for exhibitions and commissions to five women artists during the coming year, on the other side DKNY will serve as the Lead Sponsor of the New Museum during spring 2016 exhibitions. First solo New York exhibitions by artists Andra Ursula, Nicole Eisenman, Goshka Macula, Cally Spooner and Beatriz Santiago Muñoz are scheduled this Spring at the New Museum, overseen by its Artistic Director Massimiliano Gioni.
