SUMMARY:Exhibition: X-RAYS of Balenciaga\, Chanel\, Dior\, and Givenchy — Closes
DESCRIPTION:February 6–16\, 2019 \nX-RAYS of Balenciaga\, Chanel\, Dior\, and Givenchy is the result of a collaboration between the students of FIT’s Fashion Design MFA program and The Museum at FIT. The project is part of a course titled “Fashion Creation 3—Design Archaeology\,” which centers on the concept that in order to move design forward\, it is of utmost value to know where it has been. \nThe students were divided into four groups\, and then each group was tasked with producing a replica of a couture garment from a leading fashion house: Balenciaga\, Chanel\, Dior\, or Givenchy. The original garments\, housed in The Museum at FIT collection\, were carefully researched by the students. In addition to creating the line-for-line replicas\, the students gained a deep understanding of the brand’s heritage. They then developed a contemporary\, technology-driven collection. \nThe display of process-based design work highlights each student’s personal development\, resulting in a fully realized look and an advertorial that completes their vision and projects a new direction for each house. \nThis exhibition is open to the public.  \nThe Museum at FIT hours:\nTuesday–Friday: Noon–8 pm\nSaturday: 10 am–5 pm\nClosed Sundays\, Mondays\, and legal holidays

In addition to graduating from Cornell University and from Yale\, she attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture\, Maine. She was awarded a studio space at the Marie Walsh Sharpe Foundation\, New York\, and she has held residencies at the Zabludowicz Collection\, Finland\, and the Chinati Foundation\, Marfa\, Texas. She led an artist workshop at the Kyoto City University of Arts\, Japan. Since her first solo exhibitions at Bellwether Gallery\, New York\, in 2002 and 2005\, Altfest has had solo exhibitions at White Cube\, London\, and her work has been featured in exhibitions at the New Museum\, New York\, the Venice Biennale\, and at MK Gallery\, Milton Keynes\, U.K. Her current exhibition\, Green Spot\, is on view at White Cube\, Hong Kong\, China. \n\nThis event is part of the ARTSpeak 2018–2019 lecture series\, Artists and the New Muse\, an interdisciplinary program presented by the departments of Fine Arts\, History of Art\, and English and Communication Studies. \nARTSpeak is made possible in part through funding by the FIT Student-Faculty Committee\, the School of Art and Design\, and the School of Liberal Arts. \nFor more information\, visit blog.fitnyc.edu/artspeak. \nThe event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Film and Media Screening Series: 'Just Another Girl on the IRT\,' with Leslie Harris
DESCRIPTION:Director Leslie Harris.            JUST ANOTHER GIRL ON THE I.R.T.\, Ariyan Johnson\, Ebony Jerido\, 1993\, (c)Miramax     \nOriginal\, provocative\, and female-driven\, the feature Just Another Girl on the IRT was a welcome relief from the male dominated urban films of the ’90s. Smart\, ambitious\, and brash\, the lead character\, Chantel\, is not your typical “good girl” or “bad girl” but a complex character who deals with her ambitions\, African-American culture and disappointments with both humor and pathos. With a bold\, unforgettable hip-hop soundtrack and a heart-stopping ending\, this feature has become an indie cult classic and defined a generation. \nLeslie Harris\, one of the first African-American women to write\, direct and produce a narrative feature film. Just Another Girl on the IRT was released theatrically in the United States and 20 countries worldwide in 1993 after winning the Sundance Film Festival Special Jury Prize. Harris\, producer and president of her production company\, sold the feature to Miramax. The feature received an Independent Spirit Award nomination for Best Debut Performance by a lead actress and Harris has received the IFP Gotham Award Open Palm\, a National Endowment for the Arts grant\, American Film Institute Filmmaker Award\, three New York State Council on the Arts grants\, a Jerome Foundation grant\, and an ABC/DGA Directing Fellowship. \nHarris produced and directed the narrative Showtime short film Bessie Coleman’s Dream to Fly\, about the first African-American to obtain an international pilot license\, two years before Amelia Earhart; the film received a Showtime Award for Excellence. Her short Never Forget\, about the historical\, social\, and political significance of black churches in Brooklyn\, was an official selection at the Philadelphia International Film Festival. She has taught at NYU Tisch School of the Arts and lectures at many universities around the world. \nJust Another Girl on the IRT recently screened at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Arts\, British Film Institute in London and Bristol\, UK for its 25th anniversary. Harris’ next feature is a satirical comedy about sex\, race\, and the media\, titled I Love Cinema. \nThis event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Visiting Author Talk: Simeon Marsalis
DESCRIPTION:Simeon Marsalis.

Author of a forthcoming book of essays about college athletics and nationalism\, he is a Henry Rutgers Fellow at Rutgers Newark and is working on a novel about finding hope in a dystopia. \nThis event is presented by the Department of English and Communication Studies and the School of Liberal Arts and is funded in part by Poets & Writers through public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs\, in partnership with the City Council. \nThis event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Film and Media Screening Series: 'The Punk Singer\,' with Sini Anderson
DESCRIPTION:The Film and Media Screening Series will present The Punk Singer (2017) with director Sini Anderson; she will participate in a Q&A after the film. \nThe Punk Singer is a documentary film about feminist singer and activist Kathleen Hanna who fronted the bands Bikini Kill and Le Tigre\, and who was a central figure in the riot grrrl movement. The film combines a combination of interviews and archival footage\, tracing the life and career of Hanna from her troubled upbringing\, through her riot grrrl zines\, to her coining of the phrase “Smells Like Teen Spirit” for Kurt Cobain\, to her solo career as Julie Ruin. \nSini Anderson is an award-winning film director\, producer\, video art maker\, and feminist art activist who lives in New York City. Her first feature-length film\, The Punk Singer premiered at SXSW in 2013 and was acquired by IFC Films. The Punk Singer received a theatrical release in 111 American cities and in 25 countries around the world. \nAnderson is in the final phase of her second feature length film\, So Sick (2014-2019). The documentary is an exhaustive look at women who are suffering so called “mystery illnesses” and struggling to stay afloat in their lives and careers. The film uncovers infuriating truths behind women’s health care and questions an American health system that does little to dispel myths about “hysterical women.” In 2018\, Anderson was commissioned by LACMA Productions to direct a short documentary about American photographer Catherine Opie. The film premiered on Nov 3\, 2018\, at LACMA’s annual Art+Film Gala\, honoring Opie and Guillermo del Toro. LACMA Productions has approved an extended director’s cut and the film is currently being submitted to national and international film festivals. \nThe Film and Media Screening Series is supported by the Diversity Council\, the Student-Faculty Corporation\, the School of Liberal Arts\, and the departments of Film\, Media and Performing Arts\, English and Communication Studies\, and Modern Languages and Cultures. \nAll screenings are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Grad Studies Invites: The Traphagen School: Designers in the Archive
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Fashion and Textile Studies MA exhibition\, The Traphagen School: Fostering American Fashion\, explores the legacy of one of the first institutions devoted to educating fashion industry professionals in New York City. This exhibition\, the first dedicated to the school\, will focus on the Traphagen methods of design-by-adaptation and experimentation\, both of which are still used in design education and the fashion industry today. \nIn conjunction with the exhibition\, we will be hosting a panel discussion on March 21\, 2019\, to highlight the design processes utilized by contemporary fashion designers and illustrators\, with special consideration of historical and cultural influences and experimental materials/methods. The panel will feature archivists Jessica Barber and Becca Love as well as designer Kritika Manchanda. \nThis event is free and open to the public; click here to register.
