SUMMARY:Exhibition: Nurturing the Artist: Student Life From the FIT Special Collections — Closes
DESCRIPTION:Now Appearing! FIT recruitment poster circa 1970s/1980s (FITA Promotional Materials: Special Collections and FIT College Archive)\nNovember 1–December 1\, 2025\nArt and Design Gallery\, Back Gallery \nFIT’s Special Collections and College Archives\, part of the Gladys Marcus Library\, is known for its fashion documentation through rare periodicals\, fashion plates\, monographs detailing all aspects of the industry\, and unique manuscript collections. These materials provide entrance into often unpublished behind-the-scenes processes critical to fashion design\, marketing\, forecasting\, and research. \nThe College Archives\, a lesser-known part of the Special Collections\, documents the history of the college\, our evolving programs\, and the student body over eight decades. At this momentous time\, on the cusp of ushering in new leadership when longstanding President Joyce F. Brown retires\, we delved into the College Archives to explore documentary evidence of how students\, their work\, and campus life in general has been recorded since the college’s inception in 1944. \nMoving forward\, the Special Collections of FIT is actively working to expand its holdings to include more contemporary and diverse designers and makers operating in a variety of fields\, as well as aiming to capture a broader geographic scope of work across fashion\, design\, and art. \nTwo newly acquired\, as yet unprocessed\, collections included in this exhibition—the Douglas Says Collection and the Steven Cutting Collection—are examples of this expanded vision. \nNurturing the Artist is curated by FIT’s Special Collections and College Archives\, part of the Gladys Marcus Library. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Resistance and Resilience: The Weavers of Oaxaca — Closes
DESCRIPTION:January 27\, 2025–January 5\, 2026\nGladys Marcus Library\, Fifth Floor Gallery \n“Weaving is not just an economic activity; it is a means through which Zapotec women express their cultural identity and maintain a connection to their ancestral heritage.” —from Lynn Stephen’s book\, Zapotec Women \nAs you step into this exhibition\, imagine walking through the vibrant villages of Oaxaca. Every home is filled with the clack of looms and the scent of natural dyes simmering over open fires. In these spaces\, weaving is far more than craft; it is a way of life. Here\, threads connect past and present\, and each textile tells a story of resilience. For generations\, the artisans of Oaxaca have woven their world into intricate patterns that speak of nature\, ancestors\, and community bonds. Their craft represents an unbroken line of knowledge passed down through centuries\, each knot and dye preserving both their heritage and identity. \nToday\, this work faces new challenges. The same global markets that bring opportunity also demand compromise\, pressuring artisans to adapt their traditional designs and methods to appeal to modern tastes and industrial efficiency. What was once woven for local use now finds itself at the crossroads of preservation and commodification\, as artisans delicately balance their heritage with the demands of survival. Yet\, these weavers resist\, transforming their art into a quiet rebellion that continuously preserves cultural identity while navigating a rapidly changing world. \nThis exhibition explores the diversity of Oaxaca’s weaving traditions\, encompassing techniques and designs from different regions of the state. The natural dyes featured in these textiles\, drawn from plants\, insects\, and minerals\, embody a deep relationship with the land and its ecosystems. However\, these dyes are not inherently sustainable. Their reliance on nature’s cycles\, and the ecosystems that support them\, places them at risk—dependent on human practices that must prioritize balance\, preservation\, and systemic care. The relationship between artisans and the natural world is one of both beauty and fragility\, reminding us that such resources require thoughtful stewardship. \nThrough these curated images\, textiles\, and garments\, you’ll witness how weaving has become a tool for empowerment and collective action. Beyond its economic role\, weaving fosters community resilience and solidarity\, offering a platform for addressing broader social and environmental challenges. Each piece reflects the intricate patterns of adaptation\, creativity\, and pride that define Oaxaca’s artisans and their enduring traditions. \nThis exhibition invites you to honor these weavers as cultural keepers and storytellers\, preserving their heritage one thread at a time. It is a call to recognize the resilience of their practices and the shared responsibility to support their continued legacy\, ensuring their artistry and stories enrich generations to come. \nVisual Ethnographers: Professor Souzeina Mushtaq\, Communication and Media Studies\, University of Wisconsin–River Falls\nProfessor Praveen K.

SUMMARY:Fashion Design AAS Exhibition: Evolution — Closes
DESCRIPTION:Illustration by Janelle Lee.\nDecember 11\, 2025–January 11\, 2026\nArt and Design Gallery \nEvolution is the fall/winter Fashion Design AAS exhibition\, exploring the natural cycle of fashion through a floral lens. For this showcase\, students delve into the theme of evolution—from the seed of a concept to the buds of growth\, from the blossoms of creativity to the final bloom of completion. Each phase of their process reflects change\, transformation\, and renewal. \nIn the spirit of collaboration\, students from the Illustration program interpret transformation through fashion illustrations\, while students from Photography and Related Media capture moments of becoming—documenting their peers in the Fashion Design AAS program as they bring new visions to life. \nConception\, iteration\, and creation—Evolution celebrates fashion’s continual\, ever-unfolding movement forward\, shaped by growth and renewal. \nThis exhibition is organized by the Fashion Design AAS Exhibition Committee\, in collaboration with Dan Shefelman\, chair of Illustration and Interactive Media\, and Allison Wade Wermager\, chair of Photography. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.   \n

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Rewind\, Play\, Fast Forward: Animation and Game Design at FIT and Beyond — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Image by Dan Shefelman/The Animation Project.\nJanuary 17–February 15\, 2026\nArt and Design Gallery \nRewind\, Play\, Fast Forward: Animation and Game Design at FIT and Beyond celebrates animation and game design work by FIT students\, faculty\, and alumni of the School of Art and Design and the School of Graduate Studies. \nThe exhibition surveys works created in New York City and beyond\, showing how storytelling appears in animation\, where a storyline can take on a linear structure\, and in game design\, where players shape the story themselves. On display are a wide variety of game and animation art\, concept and character designs\, and games to play\, along with a special guest exhibition of world-class work from Hornet\, an New York–based animation studio that produces all forms of commercial work\, including stop-motion and computer-generated animation. \nAt FIT\, students in the Illustration BFA program can specialize in design for animation and games\, where they learn about concept art and character design to understand how characters and sets work together to create worlds and tell stories. Students in the Animation\, Interactive Media\, and Game Design BFA program take the process from design to completion\, adding movement\, sound\, and/or gameplay. Alumni of both programs have gone on to work for renowned studios\, including DreamWorks\, NBC Universal\, Disney\, and Titmouse\, where they continue to create character designs\, concept art\, and animation for popular shows. Others have formed their own game and animation companies. \nRewind\, Play\, Fast Forward is curated by Dan Shefelman\, chair of Illustration and Interactive Media\, and organized by the Department of Illustration and Interactive Media. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.
