SUMMARY:Exhibition: Soil to Surface — Opens
DESCRIPTION:Women’s cooperatives in a process of creating a plant-based paper-like material\, and a STUDIO BIRTANE lampshade made using that material. Images courtesy of Birnur Temel Birtane\, MILKist Social Design Center.\nSeptember 24–November 1\, 2026\nArt and Design Gallery \nSoil to Surface highlights the creations of small-scale women farmers\, women’s cooperatives\, and internationally recognized designers from Türkiye\, alongside the work of School of Art and Design students\, faculty\, and alumni at FIT. Proposing an alternative framework where farmers\, craftspeople\, and designers operate on equal ground\, the exhibition sees the FIT community actively reimagining these materials for contemporary design through technical experimentation and innovative thinking. \nAgricultural waste and local textile materials are repositioned in a contemporary context\, allowing multiple narratives to emerge across time and geographies\, while creating new paths for creative businesses to be local\, sustainable\, and value-driven. \nSoil to Surface is realized through a collaboration between MILKist Social Design Center and FIT\, and presented as part of the “Second Harvest” project\, developed in partnership with Anadolu Efes and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Türkiye. \nThis exhibition is part of New York Textile Month. \n\nAn opening reception will be held Thursday\, Sept. 24\, 5–7 pm\, in the Art and Design Gallery. Please RSVP to attend.  \n\nThis exhibition is free and open to the public.  \n More details at fitnyc.edu/gallery

SUMMARY:Ta’mir (Repair): Art and Architectural Restoration in Achaemenid Persia
DESCRIPTION:From palace facades to carved royal inscriptions\, discover how the Achaemenids maintained\, mended\, and renewed their monumental architecture. This virtual symposium brings together scholars to explore ancient repair practices of care\, materials\, techniques\, and what they reveal about craftsmanship in the ancient world. \nArchitectural repair\, تعمیر or ta’mir\, in modern Persian usage\, was a fundamental component of monumental construction in Achaemenid Persia between the late sixth and late fourth centuries BCE. This virtual conversation examines evidence for sustained intervention in the built palace and tomb environments of Pasargadae\, Persepolis\, and Susa\, approaching these sites not as static monuments but as continuously maintained architectural systems. Drawing on archeological\, archival\, and material analysis\, the papers investigate a wide range of repair techniques practiced\, including iron clamp stabilization\, stone patching\, block replacement\, mudbrick intervention\, and the recutting of inscribed surfaces. \nRather than treating such interventions as secondary or purely restorative\, the conversations position care and repair as integral to architectural production itself\, as a set of technical operations through which structures were stabilized\, modified\, and sustained over time. By reconstructing these practices across multiple sites and materials\, we propose that Achaemenid Persian architecture was defined not only by initial construction but by ongoing processes of maintenance and adjustment. Repair emerges as a constitutive aspect of architectural form\, linking material knowledge\, labor organization\, and imperial building practices. \nSpeakers:  \n\nAlexander Nagel\, FIT\nMargaret Cool Root\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\nAtefeh Shekofteh\, Uppsala University\nOmid Oudbashi\, University of Gothenburg\nSoheil Delshad\, École Pratique des Hautes Études\, Centre Sarikhani d’Études Élamites\, Paris\n\nThis event is free and open to the public.  \n Email arthistory@fitnyc.edu to register
