SUMMARY:FIT Authors Talk: Raissa Bretaña on 'Moxie: The Daring Women of Classic Hollywood'
DESCRIPTION:Raissa Bretaña\, education and collections assistant at The Museum at FIT\, will discuss her book\, Moxie: The Daring Women of Classic Hollywood. \nTo make it in Hollywood\, it takes more than beauty\, brains\, and talent—it takes moxie. This was especially true for women in the heyday of the studio system\, a period from the 1920s to the 1950s when a small number of companies dominated the production and distribution of films in America. It was an industry controlled by male studio executives\, in which directors and producers called the shots and contract players had little say in which roles they would play. Still\, a trailblazing group of actresses forged successful careers out of sheer conviction\, perseverance\, and professional know-how. These spirited women captivated audiences\, shaped the film industry\, and remain enduring icons of classic cinema. \nThis virtual event is for the FIT community only. \n JOIN VIA THE FIT AUTHORS WEBSITE

SUMMARY:World Affairs Lecture Series: From the Individual to the Collective: A Search for Identity\, with Rania Matar

Juliette (Mirror)\, Achrafieh\, Beirut\, Lebanon. 2024. Photo by Rania Matar.       \nIn this virtual World Affairs Lecture\, Rania Matar will be in conversation with Dr. Souzeina Mushtaq\, assistant professor of Communication and Media Studies at University of Wisconsin–River Falls\, on the topic of “From the Individual to the Collective: A Search for Identity.” \nRania Matar has dedicated her photographic practice to exploring deeply personal narratives\, drawing upon her multifaceted cultural background and cross-cultural experiences as a Lebanese-born Palestinian-American artist and mother. Her work explores issues of individual and collective identity\, often through photographs of girls and women in the United States and the Middle East. Working in collaboration with her subjects to create intimate\, often emotionally charged portraits\, her work highlights transcendent human experiences and emphasizes underlying similarities rather than apparent differences.  In doing so\, her work provides insight into the complexity of women’s inner lives and relationships. An accomplished artist\, Matar was the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2018. \nThe Department of Social Sciences’ World Affairs Lecture Series fulfills FIT’s mission to foster an understanding of diverse cultures and politics within the international as well as domestic perspectives.
