SUMMARY:MakerMinds Event: Crochet\, Knitting\, and Code!
DESCRIPTION:Coding\, knitting\, and crochet share structural similarities: They are all information expressed in symbolic abbreviations. Because of these similarities\, knitting has been used historically to convey coded messages. In this workshop\, we offer the chance for students to knit or crochet their own short messages in either Morse or ASCII codes. We’ll demonstrate ways to translate these into fiber and help students understand why this works. \nThis event is for the FIT community only.

SUMMARY:Globally Connected @ FIT: Sashiko and Cultural Sustainability for the Japanese People
DESCRIPTION:Atsushi Futatsuya.\nEngage with sashiko\, a traditional Japanese embroidery type\, in this conversation with Atsushi Futatsuya\, sashiko artisan and founder of Upcycle Stitches. \nSashiko (Japanese for “little stabs”) is an old Japanese mending technique that originated from a very poor community in Japan. Fast forward to today\, the technique has been adopted by big brands\, such as Kenzo and Maison Margiela. According to Atsushi Futatsuya\, sashiko introduced in English is not wrong\, but unfortunately\, it isn’t usually introduced or described in its entirety. \nThis virtual discussion will explain what sashiko means and represents to the Japanese people\, as it is often communicated with missing elements and can be romanticized in Western culture. Moderated by Cultural Fellow Hinako Ishii\, Fashion Business Management\, who is an international student from Japan. \nAtsushi Futatsuya was born into the third generation of a surviving sashiko family in Gifu prefecture. He grew up with sashiko\, surrounded by thread\, needles\, and fabric. He launched the “Sashi.Co” project with his mother\, Keiko\, who has over 30 years of experience in sashiko stitching as a platform to introduce masterful works of sashiko. \nIn 2017\, Atsushi began introducing the beauty and philosophy of sashiko to the world through his website and workshops as “Sashiko Story.” His website is upcyclestitches.com. \nHosted by the Office of International Programs\, History of Art\, and the Cultural Fellows. \nThis virtual event is free and open to the public; REGISTER HERE.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Elizabeth Hawes: Along Her Own Lines — Closes
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Hawes\, ivory\, purple\, and lavender striped brocade evening dress (detail)\, c. 1936\, USA\, gift of Mrs. Dudley Schoales\, 69.156.6          Elizabeth Hawes\, multicolor cotton\, handknit man’s jockey shorts (front view)\, 1964\, USA\, gift of Barnes Riznik\, 88.65.3             Elizabeth Hawes       \nMarch 1–26\, 2023\nGallery FIT\, The Museum at FIT \nElizabeth Hawes: Along Her Own Lines is the first contemporary exhibition dedicated to the gifted American clothing designer\, author\, and labor activist\, Elizabeth Hawes (1903–1971). The show opens at a crucial moment when Hawes is especially relevant\, because her activism and innovative philosophies correspond to the concerns of today. Hawes criticized the exploitative\, classist nature of the fashion industry and sought to revolutionize it in her own creations\, and through her writing and unionization efforts. She created gender nonbinary clothing and encouraged women to embrace their unique bodies with an open-minded positivity that was ahead of its time. Hawes further used writing and journalism to challenge the fashion industry from the inside\, and called for people to think consciously about what they wear—with words that remain influential. \nRead the full description on The Museum at FIT’s website. \nThis exhibition is presented by students in FIT’s Fashion and Textile Studies: History\, Theory\, Museum Practice MA program.  This program builds knowledge in fashion and textile history\, object conservation\, and exhibition theory over the course of two years. During their second year\, students utilize the interdisciplinary skills they have acquired through the program to collaborate with The Museum at FIT\, developing and installing an exhibition of fashion objects from MFIT’s collection. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Jock Peters\, Architecture and Design: The Varieties of Modernism
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR APRIL 25 AT 4 PM. \n          Christopher Long.                 \nRetail design\, fashion merchandising\, set design\, furniture\, packaging\, interiors\, architecture\, fine art rendering… little-known architect and designer Jock Peters\, a largely forgotten figure of early Los Angeles modernism\, did it all. Professor Christopher Long presents his new book titled Jock Peters\, Architecture and Design: The Varieties of Modernism by Bauer and Dean Publishers. The book is a visually rich portrait of an architect whose most internationally lauded creations include the lavish commercial interiors for the iconic Bullock’s Wilshire store in Los Angeles and the tragically forgotten Hollander department store in New York City. \nAmong Peters’s early work in Germany are the Levantehaus and Karstadt department stores\, a magnificent glass pavilion from 1916\, and his work for Peter Behrens after the war. But\, the architect’s most accomplished and compelling work came after 1922 when he settled in Southern California. \nLong’s study on early modernism includes material from the architect’s personal archive\, still in family hands. The remarkable images in the book—more than 250 historic photographs\, etchings\, watercolors\, and drawings—alongside Long’s narrative\, demonstrate how Peters\, despite his early death\, managed to leave his mark on the modernist landscape in Southern California at a time when the new style was just emerging. \nChristopher Long is Martin S. Kermacy Centennial Professor of Architectural History at the University of Texas at Austin. He has published widely on modern architecture and design in Central Europe and the United States. \nTHIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED; IT HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR APRIL 25. Visit the new listing.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: 'Till' and Q&A with Writer/Executive Producer Keith Beauchamp
DESCRIPTION:  \nBased on the true story of Mamie Till-Mobley\, Till depicts her pursuit of justice after the murder of her 14-year-old son Emmett in 1955. The film uses 27 years’ worth of research by Keith Beauchamp\, whose efforts led to the reopening of Till’s case by the United States Department of Justice in 2004. Directed by Chinonye Chukwu\, the film stars Danielle Deadwyler as Mamie Till-Bradley\, with Jalyn Hall\, Frankie Faison\, Haley Bennett\, and Whoopi Goldberg in supporting roles. \nThe tale of Emmett Till and his legacy is a true story of black resistance that kickstarted the battle for civil rights in America. According to Beauchamp\, who co-wrote and produced the film\, “There is no other story that speaks more to this generation and to this political climate and racial climate of this country than the story of Emmett Louis Till.” \nProfessor Dahlia Schweitzer\, from FIT’s Film and Media program\, will moderate a conversation with writer and executive producer Keith Beauchamp following the film. \nThe screening will take place in Room D207\, FIT’s screening room\, in the Pomerantz Center\, on the campus of FIT. \nSponsored by FIT’s Social Justice Center\, FIT’s Film and Media Program\, the School of Liberal Arts\, and the Justice Film Festival. \nThis event is free and open to the public; RESERVE A FREE TICKET ON EVENTBRITE.

SUMMARY:Jock Peters\, Architecture and Design: The Varieties of Modernism [Rescheduled]
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR MAY 2. Find the new listing here.  \n          Christopher Long.                 \nRetail design\, fashion merchandising\, set design\, furniture\, packaging\, interiors\, architecture\, fine art rendering… little-known architect and designer Jock Peters\, a largely forgotten figure of early Los Angeles modernism\, did it all. Professor Christopher Long presents his new book titled Jock Peters\, Architecture and Design: The Varieties of Modernism by Bauer and Dean Publishers. The book is a visually rich portrait of an architect whose most internationally lauded creations include the lavish commercial interiors for the iconic Bullock’s Wilshire store in Los Angeles and the tragically forgotten Hollander department store in New York City. \nAmong Peters’s early work in Germany are the Levantehaus and Karstadt department stores\, a magnificent glass pavilion from 1916\, and his work for Peter Behrens after the war. But\, the architect’s most accomplished and compelling work came after 1922 when he settled in Southern California. \nLong’s study on early modernism includes material from the architect’s personal archive\, still in family hands. The remarkable images in the book—more than 250 historic photographs\, etchings\, watercolors\, and drawings—alongside Long’s narrative\, demonstrate how Peters\, despite his early death\, managed to leave his mark on the modernist landscape in Southern California at a time when the new style was just emerging. \nChristopher Long is Martin S. Kermacy Centennial Professor of Architectural History at the University of Texas at Austin. He has published widely on modern architecture and design in Central Europe and the United States. \nThis event was originally scheduled for April 18; this date has been rescheduled for May 2. Here is the new listing.  \nThis virtual event is free and open to the public; a Webex link will be provided shortly.
