Join Andrew Bolton, Curator in Charge of The Costume Institute, on a tour of the exhibition Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.
The Costume Institute’s spring 2024 exhibition, Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, reactivates the sensory capacities of masterworks in the Museum’s collection through first-hand research, conservation analysis, and diverse technologies—from cutting-edge tools of artificial intelligence and computer-generated imagery to traditional formats of x-rays, video animation, light projection, and soundscapes.
On view through September 2nd, 2024.
