It will do that by pairing garments with objects from across the museum to show how fashion has long been intertwined with different art forms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a show that can really live in fascinating ways at the museum and can pull from all different areas of our collection \u2014 paintings, sculpture, drawings,\u201d the museum\u2019s CEO and director, Max Hollein, said in an interview last month.<\/p>\n<p>The show, overseen as always by the Costume Institute\u2019s curator in charge, Andrew Bolton, will be organized thematically by different body types. It will include the \u201cNaked Body\u201d and the \u201cClassical Body,\u201d for example, but also less traditional themes like the \u201cPregnant Body\u201d and the \u201cAging Body.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new exhibit will also have a splashy new home. \u201cCostume Art\u201d will inaugurate new gallery space occupying some 12,000 square feet, right off the museum\u2019s Great Hall \u2014 giving fashion a prominent space in the museum and also helping to control congestion at the heavily attended exhibits. The new Conde M. Nast galleries \u2014 created from what was formerly the museum\u2019s retail store \u2014 will house not only all spring Costume Institute exhibits, but other shows from different parts of the museum.<\/p>\n<p>Bolton has said the gallery space \u201cwill mark a pivotal moment for the department, one that acknowledges the critical role fashion plays not only within art history but also within contemporary culture.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Venus Williams returned to competition in July at age 45 after nearly 1 1\/2 years away from the tour, though she had never retired. She became the oldest player to play singles at the U.S. Open since 1981.
