SUMMARY:Fashion and Textile Studies Symposium: Dressing New York: Identity and Experience
DESCRIPTION:A commercial and cultural capital\, New York is the center of the American fashion industry\, home of fashion innovators in design\, production\, and retail. Creators of both luxurious custom clothing and ready-to-wear sportswear have found a place in New York\, as have the retailers who marketed and sold these items and the journalists who authored the fashion news for the American public. Yet the New York dress experience goes beyond the industry\, encompassing a diversity of expressions of individuals and subcultures\, all drawn to the energy of this place of extremes. \nIn this symposium\, students in FIT’s MA program in Fashion and Textile Studies: History\, Theory\, Museum Practice will present papers on a range of topics\, investigating New York dress in the 19th and 20th centuries. From issues of gender and dress reform to design milestones and triumphs of the mainstream fashion system\, New Yorkers reimagine and reinvent themselves through dress. \nThis event is free and open to the public.

Patrick Kelly\, dress\, fall/winter 1986\, France\, museum purchase\, 2016.48.1.       \nDecember 6\, 2016–May 16\, 2017 \nBlack Fashion Designers examines the impact made by designers of African descent on the world of fashion.

Contemporary pieces include Lagos-based designer Maki Oh’s spring 2013 dress that reconceptualizes Nigerian traditions\, and pieces from the latest runways of established designers\, such as Tracy Reese\, and emerging talents\, such as Charles Harbison. The exhibition addresses the influence of black fashion models as well\, by highlighting milestone events\, such as “The Ebony Fashion Fair.” \nBlack Fashion Designers is meant to enliven the conversation about historic and ongoing issues of diversity within the fashion industry. It honors the creative talents of designers who are often overlooked and provides a fresh\, holistic view of the fashion industry\, emphasizing the significant roles in culture and society played by black designers. \nTo read more about Black Fashion Designers\, click here.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Force of Nature — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Alexander McQueen\, Plato’s Atlantis collection\, Spring 2010\, England\, museum purchase.\nForce of Nature examines how the beauty and complexity of the natural world have inspired fashion designers for centuries. The exhibition places more than 75 objects from The Museum at FIT’s permanent collection\, dating from the 18th century to the present\, within a context of period philosophies and scientific literature in order to demonstrate the deep interconnectedness between fashion and nature. \nAn enthusiasm for country life is represented with a 1785 robe à l’anglaise that illustrates a movement toward simple dress\, influenced by philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau\, who urged a return to nature. A dress by Alexander McQueen from his acclaimed final collection in 2010\, presents a meditation upon Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and concern over climate change. More than a survey of flora\, fauna\, and geology as merely decorative\, the exhibition reveals the natural world as a nexus of ideas and symbolism in fashion design. Force of Nature aims to contribute to today’s important\, ongoing conversation about society’s relationship with the natural world and humankind’s place within it.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Selected Work from 2017 Photography BFA Exhibition at Photoville — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Students graduating from the Photography and the Digital Image BFA program will show their work as part of the annual Photoville\, a modular venue built from re-purposed shipping containers located in Brooklyn Bridge Plaza that features more than 70 indoor and outdoor exhibitions\, as well as panels discussions and workshops. \nPhotoville will take place September 13–24 in Brooklyn Bridge Plaza\, on the corners of Water Street and New Dock Street. It is directly underneath the Brooklyn Bridge in DUMBO and bordered by Jane’s Carousel and St. Ann’s Warehouse. Hours of operation vary by day; please check the Photoville website\, photoville.com\, for the schedule. \nPhotography students exhibited their senior thesis projects in a group-curated show on campus in May as part of the annual School of Art and Design Graduating Student Exhibition. Refractions was a collective showcase of individual long-term projects that directly reflect the photographic techniques and styles developed during the students’ years at FIT. Work in the show explored themes that ranged from documentary projects about tattoo artists and scientists studying the ocean to personal explorations that examine ideas of memory\, power\, and sexuality. The different photographic techniques employed\, as well as the myriad themes explored by the students\, is a reminder that photography still remains a major medium of expression and perspective. \n  \nhttp://photoville.com/selected-work-fit-graduating-show-2017/
