The Generational: Younger Than Jesus

Keeping in line with their philosophy of New Art – New Ideas, The New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York recently opened “The Generational: Younger Than Jesus”, a truly unique undertaking and the first of three exhibitions that will feature fifty artists from twenty-five countries.

“The Generational: Younger Than Jesus” will offer a rich, intricate, multidisciplinary exploration of the work being produced by a new generation of artists born after 1976. Known to demographers, marketers, sociologists, and pundits variously as the Millennials, Generation Y, iGeneration, and Generation Me, this age group has yet to be described in any way beyond their habits of consumption. “Younger Than Jesus” will begin to examine the visual culture this generation has created to date.

The exhibition also has its own blog, so check it out. Its kind of awesome.
