“We aim to collectively advance understandings of how identity is conveyed and configured within contemporary art practices in order to create sites of acknowledgment that promote solidarity and shift obstructions to Indigenous growth.”
New Red Order is a public secret society facilitated by core contributors Adam Khalil (Ojibway), Zack Khalil (Ojibway), and Jackson Polys (Tlingit) that collaborates with informants to create exhibitions, videos, and performances that question and rechannel subjective and material relationships to indigeneity. New Red Order calls attraction toward indigeneity into question yet promotes this desire and enjoins potential non–Indigenous accomplices to participate in the examination and expansion of Indigenous agency.
They have presented their work with Art Sonje, Artists Space, Creative Time, Haus der Kulturen der Welt Berlin, Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Kunstverein in Hamburg, the Lincoln Center, Momenta Biennale de l’image, the Museum of Modern Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, the New York Film Festival, Sharjah Biennial, Sundance Film Festival, Toronto Biennial 2019, the Walker Arts Center, and the Whitney Biennial 2019, among others, expanding the public secret society network across numerous institutional platforms.
