SUMMARY:Exhibition: Chasing a Dying River: Ghat 24 Yamuna\, Delhi\, India — Opens
DESCRIPTION:February 5–August 31\, 2023\nGladys Marcus Library\, Fifth Floor \nNew Delhi\, the capital of India\, is ranked as one of the most polluted cities in the world. The city is also home to a passing river\, the Yamuna\, one of the two most sacred rivers in Vedic literature for thousands of years. Besides being the doorway to deep spirituality\, the rivers Yamuna and the Ganges have also played a significant role in modern India’s political history\, religious culture\, and economy. \nAlthough the river originates from the glacier 20\,000 feet above sea level and travels a total length of 855 miles\, these images focus on Ghat 24\, one of the 32 contiguous historic stairways on the Yamuna river in Delhi. These images provide a glimpse of daily life\, including a significant crematorium\, a modern highway\, a cantilevered subway system\, and TikTok creators on this severely polluted river. They also give us a glimpse of human contradictions of deep spirituality and environmental indifference towards a river celebrated since ancient times. Unfortunately\, the mega city is now the primary source of pollution in the river Yamuna. \nArtists\nPraveen K. Chaudhry\, PhD\, is a professor in the Social Sciences and Global Fashion Management departments. Souzeina Mushtaq\, PhD\, is an assistant professor (visiting) of Communication and Media Studies at the School of Journalism at the University of Wisconsin\, River Falls. Together they have been working on multiple projects\, including photographing the nomads and weavers of the Taurus Mountains in Turkey\, the Changtang plateau in Tibet\, Ladakh\, and the Kashmir Valley. While on pandemic lockdown in New York they created a new work\, “New York City: Pandemic\, Resilience\, and Hope.” The pair have exhibited their work several times at FIT\, as well as at galleries in Mexico\, India\, and the United States. They have also shown in various virtual exhibitions. \nCurator\nGabrielle Lauricella is the campus exhibitions coordinator for The Museum at FIT. In addition to curating this work\, she has worked closely with the artists on several of their previous projects. \nGraphic\nNanja Andriananjason\, History of Art \nProject Advisor\nKyunghee Pyun\, PhD\, Associate Professor\, History of Art \nWatch a video preview of the exhibition below. \nhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1Cy7iFVTcqxnv1SCOiFHXq8mubZKf6GUe/view \nThis exhibition is sponsored and supported by the Presidential Scholars Program\, Dean for the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences\, the Department of Social Sciences\, Ethics and Sustainability Minor\, the Department of Global Fashion Management\, and the Office of the International Programs. \nThis exhibition is on view inside the Gladys Marcus Library; you need an FIT ID or visitor pass to access the library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: The Dre$$ — Opens
DESCRIPTION:February 18–March 1\nDubinsky Student Center\, Eighth Floor \nTo show the world just how much women miss out in retirement\, TIAA and fashion designer\, Fe Noel\, launched “The Dre$$” on the first night of New York Fashion Week. The strapless\, corseted gown with a 16-foot train and abundant ruffles is made from thousands of artificial bills to symbolize the potential $1.6 million women lose out on in retirement savings. \nThe Dre$$ made a huge statement by being the closing garment on Fe Noel’s runway. It is one of many installments of TIAA’s #RetireInequality campaign\, which aims to shine a light on the inequalities Americans face in retirement. \nVisit The Dre$$ on display through March 1 to experience the powerful representation of the women’s retirement gap\, and attend an TIAA seminar for the FIT community hosted by Fe and money management expert Lynnette Khalfani-Cox March 1 at 3:30 pm to discuss how to best fuse the worlds of fashion and finance. Details here.  \nThis exhibition is open to the FIT community only.
