Alex Abad-Santos: Beneath the scrim of war, Dany issuing dragon-backed threats in Meereen, and Ramsay Bolton's demise at Winterfell, "Battle of the Bastards" contained a pivotal moment for Sansa Stark — one that clarified her place, her alignment, and her mindset in the fight for the Iron Throne: She's no longer a Stark.

Making its debut next Wednesday, on International Women's Day, the campaign, called "Embrace Ambition," features Julianne Moore, Melinda Gates, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jamie Lee Curtis, Anna Wintour, Reese Witherspoon and other famous people (both male and female) talking in front of a scrim about reclaiming a word that has often been used to vilify women.

All of the play's live action occurs behind a scrim, on which a frenetic, diaphanous landscape of memories is projected, like a poetic thought bubble hovering over the academic as she meticulously calculates her personality, her consumption of intellectual capital, and the people with whom she interacts in a painstaking portrait of self-invention.

He began working on the plan to build a museum about seven years ago, and took meticulous care to ensure that it was lit with natural light, filtered through a vellum scrim, and that all of the museum's technology — air conditioning vents, fire alarms, even exit signs — would be hidden to avoid distracting viewers from the art.

Twitter user SJWMEGATRON tweeted a comparison of the official photo next to a fan-created alteration that adds color, removes the scrim of grey and shadows from the picture, and gives us a version of Mera that looks brighter and better: *WHEN YOU CREATE A BEAUTIFUL SUPERHERO COSTUME BUT THEN REMEMBER IT'S IN THE SNYDERVERSE* pic.twitter.

After the show, as a boy in a full suit of Tin Man armor and silver face paint asked for a selfie, Mr. Gvasalia — no longer hiding behind the scrim of "the collective" as he did when Vetements began — noted that he was often asked what he would do differently when it came to his brand.

Other artists have that work aligns with this wave, including Paul Anthony Smith, a 29-year-old artist born in Jamaica but raised in Miami, whose photo-based works, shown at Ziehersmith gallery utilized images of black people in a parade underneath a scrim of pointillist geometric patterns, and they derive their titles from classic jazz albums.

A burbling fountain in the midst of it all provided background music for a bouquet of pastel bouclé suits with matching bouclé bootees (also some bouclé knickerbockers, but let's forget those), berry-hued cocktail dresses twinkling with flower fairy lights and feathers, and little sheaths that shimmered under the airbrushed scrim of a silk chiffon overdress and allowed for a bigger stride.

Erica Hirshler, a senior curator of American paintings at the museum, said that Kahlo's "heroic image of modern working women, placed before a scrim of leaves as if it were a Renaissance cloth of honor, makes for interesting conversations among the M.F.A.'s encyclopedic collections and enhances our 20th-century holdings immeasurably, while also adding to our impressive and growing number of works by women artists."

The Christian Gospels were written in Greek, a language that Jesus and his followers didn't speak, and certainly couldn't read or write in (if they could read and write at all), and the version of the Jewish scriptures that the Gospels drew upon, the Septuagint, was also in Greek—which means that the Gospels as we have them emerged from behind a Hellenistic scrim.

Even in "Certain Women" in 2016, when Kelly Reichardt wanted a performance so minimal and restrained that she told Dern not to move her foot while lying in bed, Dern found a way to express the contradictory desires, impulses and disappointments that were driving her character's choices by setting her mouth and squinting so that her eyes appeared to be covered with a vague cirrostratus scrim.

And he recently reconceived one of his most beloved pieces, "Excursus: Homage to the Square3," a kind of walk-through scrim village, punctuated with filtered fluorescent tubes, made originally in 1998 at Dia Center for the Arts in Chelsea and, in its new form, on view through May 2017 at the Dia Art Foundation's outpost in Beacon, N.Y., a former box-printing factory for which Mr. Irwin was the master planner when the building became a museum in 2003.

Consider it this way: In 2014, Rihanna accepted the Fashion Icon Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America in a sheer rhinestone-spangled scrim of a dress by Adam Selman; last November, she accepted the Shoe of the Year award at the Footwear News Achievement Awards in a long black Vetements X Juicy Couture velvet skirt, a long-sleeved shirt draped at the waist and long gloves, with almost no skin showing at all.

Seen anew, much of its imagery is surreally beautiful: the vast plated underside of an armored starship sliding on and on forever overhead; the dreamlike tableau, seen through a scrim of smoke and framed by concentric portals, of a girl shrouded in white furtively genuflecting to a robot; a golden android waving for help in a desert by the skeleton of a dinosaur; a convoy of space fighters opening their split wings in sequence, like poison flowers blossoming.

I first encountered Ellison through the scrim of Larry Neal's 19603 essay "Ellison's Zoot Suit," so I knew what I needed to read for — the invaluable critical propositions about African-American culture, the dazzling enactment of blues vernacular in modernist prose, artistic achievement steeped in reference to the music and an eye capable of discerning what Zora Neale Hurston described as the distinctive asymmetry and angularity that were the most striking manifestations of black style and the will to adorn.

And it has taken more than 220 years of false starts, scrapped plans and painstaking fund-raising for the project, scheduled to open to the public this summer, to come into being, as simple as the idea may sound: a C-shaped building with no artificial light (only what comes in through the large, regularly spaced windows); walls of translucent scrim bisecting the interior, making views inside dissolve into a kind of vapor; and a courtyard with Palo Verde trees and a collection of jutting basalt columns that suggest a prehistoric skyline.
