SUMMARY:Exhibition: Rewind\, Play\, Fast Forward: Animation and Game Design at FIT and Beyond — Closes
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.

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Art X Fashion — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Wales Bonner X Kerry James Marshall\, cotton t-shirt reproducing Lost Boys: AKA Black Sonny (1993) by Kerry James Marshall\, spring 2023\, museum purchase\, 2022.55.1\nFebruary 18–April 19\, 2026\nSpecial Exhibitions Gallery\nThe Museum at FIT \nArt X Fashion is a major exhibition exploring the entangled and shifting relationship between fine art and fashion—typically considered a “decorative” or “applied” art. Curated by Dr. Elizabeth Way\, curator of Costume and Accessories\, and featuring 140 garments\, textiles\, and accessories from The Museum at FIT’s permanent collection\, this exhibition traces fashion and art’s parallel aesthetics from 18th century rococo to late-20th century postmodernism. \nUtilizing the theoretical framework developed by art and fashion historian Dr. Christopher Richards\, Art X Fashion invites viewers to consider the much-asked question\, “Is fashion art?” through historic and contemporary examples. Further themes explore the overlapping art-and-fashion work of artists—such as Salvador Dalí\, Sonia Delaunay\, Kerry James Marshall\, Antonio Lopez\, and Pablo Picasso—and fashion designers\, including Hussein Chalayan\, Issey Miyake\, Paul Poiret\, Elsa Schiaparelli\, and Vivienne Tam\, as well as the ways artists use fashion to shape their identities and expand their cultural significance.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Beyond Utility — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Yvonne Schichtel\, Trench Dress\, 2021. Photo courtesy of designer.\nFebruary 25–March 22\, 2026\nGoodman Center Lobby \nBeyond Utility\, curated by graduate students in the Fashion and Textile Studies: History\, Theory\, Museum Practice MA program in collaboration with The Museum at FIT\, examines the perpetual transformation of utilitarian design within and beyond the fashion system. Throughout history\, fashion and anti-fashion groups have adopted and abstracted clothing born out of necessity\, continuously negotiating between form and function. Showcasing never-before-displayed objects from the MFIT Study Collection and the FTS Graduate Study Collection\, the exhibition pairs utility dress archetypes with their later reinterpretations\, featuring designs from Issey Miyake\, BOY London\, Bonnie Cashin\, Junya Watanabe\, Burberry\, Moschino\, and more. \nThe case studies span three sections\, unbound by chronology: “Workwear: Beyond Labor\,” “Military: Beyond Combat\,” and “Craft: Beyond Domesticity\,” exploring the interplay between materials\, aesthetics\, and cultural connotations. By investigating objects that have unique biographies and lived-experiences\, Beyond Utility reveals how utility dress can shape ideas of style\, from factories and battlefields to runways and city streets. \nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Africa’s Fashion Heritage: Eight African Countries — Closes
DESCRIPTION:February 2–16\, Goodman Center Lobby\nFebruary 9–28\, Goodman Center\, Room D223  \nThis 3D virtual fashion exhibition presents 28 looks created by Professor Jennifer Lee\, Ph.D. (Fashion Business Management\, FIT). The exhibition brings together traditional African ensembles from prestigious museum collections alongside contemporary reinterpretations from The Museum at FIT\, curated by Elizabeth Way\, Ph.D.\, and designed by legendary fashion designers from eight African countries: Côte d’Ivoire\, the Democratic Republic of Congo\, Ethiopia\, Ghana\, Kenya\, Mali\, Nigeria\, and South Africa. \nEach look is meticulously 3D modeled and interwoven with the stories of cultural trailblazers whose lives and legacies have inspired global audiences. Together\, these works honor the richness\, innovation\, and enduring influence of African fashion\, preserving its cultural heritage for future generations. \nThis project is part of The Legacy: Diversity Meets Technology (founded in 2021)\, a collegewide experiential learning initiative that promotes multicultural diversity through emerging technologies.  \nInteractive 3D views for each garment are available at The Legacy 2026 website. \nWatch the project video on YouTube here. \nThe Goodman Lobby exhibition is free and open to the public.
