FANtasy: The Mona Lee Nesseth Fan Collection
October 26, 2019 - March 12, 2020
FANtasy celebrates outstanding examples of fan makers’ art spanning three centuries. Recently gifted to the FIDM Museum by Fashion Council member and renowned gemologist Mona Lee Nesseth, this remarkable collection of masterworks spans the golden age of fan creativity. Additionally, a specially commissioned fan from France’s leading eventailliste, Sylvain Le Guen, highlights the talents of this present day artisan of the haute couture. Together, these handheld artworks attest to both the skills of their creators and the connoisseurship of their collector.
We are pleased to share that we will be hosting our annual Art of Costume Design in Film exhibition 2024 at ASU California Center Grand, home of ASU FIDM. Leveraging the legacy of FIDM, ASU FIDM is an expansion of fashion education at the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts at Arizona State University.
