SUMMARY:ARTSpeak: The Guerilla Girls
DESCRIPTION:This slideshow requires JavaScript. \nPlease note that this event is sold out\, but a video of it will be made available shortly afterward here on Newsroom at events.fitnyc.edu. \nSome tickets may be available the day of the event; doors open at 5 pm. FIT students\, faculty\, and staff will be given priority. Questions? Email guerrillagirlsatfit@fitnyc.edu.   \n\n\n\nIn a rare New York appearance\, internationally known feminist advocacy group the Guerrilla Girls are coming to FIT. For decades\, the Guerrilla Girls have been drawing attention to the absence of representation of female artists in galleries and museums around the world. \n\nThey wear gorilla masks to maintain anonymity because their focus is not on any individual artist but rather on the systemic problem of sexism in the art world more broadly. \n“The Guerrilla Girls are feminist activist artists. Over 55 people have been members over the years\, some for weeks\, some for decades. Our anonymity keeps the focus on the issues\, and away from who we might be. We wear gorilla masks in public and use facts\, humor and outrageous visuals to expose gender and ethnic bias as well as corruption in politics\, art\, film\, and pop culture. We undermine the idea of a mainstream narrative by revealing the understory\, the subtext\, the overlooked\, and the downright unfair. We believe in an intersectional feminism that fights discrimination and supports human rights for all people and all genders. \n“We have done over 100 street projects\, posters and stickers all over the world\, including New York\, Los Angeles\, Minneapolis\, Mexico City\, Istanbul\, London\, Bilbao\, Rotterdam\, and Shanghai\, to name just a few. We also do projects and exhibitions at museums\, attacking them for their bad behavior and discriminatory practices right on their own walls\, including our 2015 stealth projection about income inequality and the super rich hijacking art on the façade of the Whitney Museum in New York. \n“Our retrospectives in Bilbao and Madrid\, Guerrilla Girls 1985-2015\, and our U.S. traveling exhibition\, Guerrilla Girls: Not Ready To Make Nice\, have attracted thousands. We could be anyone. We are everywhere. What’s next? More creative complaining!! New projects in London\, Paris\, Cologne\, and more!”  —From the Guerrilla Girls website \nPlease join us for an evening of inspiration and education\, tempered with a healthy dose of humor. Tickets to this event are currently sold out; seating will be done on a first come\, first served basis. \nThis event is part of the ARTSpeak 2017–2018 lecture series\, The Creative Practitioner and the Expanded Studio\, an interdisciplinary program presented by the departments of Fine Arts\, History of Art\, English and Communication Studies\, and MFA in Fashion Design. \nARTSpeak is made possible in part through funding by the FIT Student-Faculty Corporation\, the School of Art and Design\, and the School of Liberal Arts. \nFor more information\, visit blog.fitnyc.edu/artspeak. \nThis is event is free and open to the public; however\, registration is required.

SUMMARY:An Evening with the Central Park Five and Filmmaker Sarah Burns: Looking Back to Look Forward
DESCRIPTION:Central Park Five and filmmaker Sarah Burns\nIn 1989\, five black and Latino teenagers were wrongly convicted for the rape of a white woman in Central Park. The Central Park Jogger Case\, as it came to be known\, was chronicled in a recent documentary titled The Central Park Five by Ken Burns\, David McMahon\, and Sarah Burns\, who take the perspective of the five men whose lives were torn apart by the trials\, wrongful convictions\, and fights for justice. \nFIT welcomes three members of the Central Park Five and filmmaker Sarah Burns to campus to present a 30-minute excerpt of the documentary\, The Central Park Five\, and to discuss it and current racial issues\, as their case continues to resonate today. \nThis event is presented by Professor Bernard L. Dillard\, in collaboration with the Presidential Scholars Program and the Office of Educational Opportunity Programs.  It is sponsored by the President’s Diversity Grant and the UCE of FIT. \nDoors open at 4:45 pm; event begins at 5:45. \nDownload a PDF of the Program for the event here. \nThis event is free and open to the public; however\, tickets are required.
