  • Watts Gallery a National Gallery Working in Collaboration with Prisons a Case Study
    watts gallery a national gallery working in collaboration with prisons a case study The National Alliance for Arts in Criminal Justice is managed by Maurice, ‘Sunset’, Street Level Art About the NAACJ case study series One of the key threads running through the work of the National Alliance for Arts in Criminal Justice is the promotion of good practice within the arts and criminal justice sector. We want to encourage excellence amongst organisations and individuals working in this area, and ensure that our work continually encourages and celebrates good practice. To address this, we run a professional mentoring scheme, which expands opportunities for our members to develop professional skills and knowledge in the field of arts and criminal justice through a one to one mentoring relationship, and we continually update our online Evidence Library, which houses the key research and evaluation documents on the impact of arts-based projects, programmes and interventions within the Criminal Justice System. On top of this, we want to explore and share some of the excellent work already happening in the sector on a more detailed level. We focus on interesting collaborations happening between arts organisations and criminal justice organisations, exploring how they work together and the impact this has on participants and the process of rehabilitation. This case study will look specifically at a national gallery working closely with its local prisons. Elena, ‘Man on a Cross’, Surrey Youth Support Project The Big Issues exhibition at the Watts Gallery About the Watts Gallery and the Big Issues Project First opening its doors to the public in 1904, the Watts Gallery in Compton, Surrey is a purpose-built art gallery created for the display of works by the Victorian artist George Frederic Watts OM RA (1817 – 1904).

  • Mary and George Watts, Can Be Viewed As A
    The following extract has kindly been provided by Dr Lucy Ella Rose, from her published work Suffragists Artists in Partnership. Edinburgh University Press (2018), Chapter 1 - Mary and George Watts. We are grateful to Lucy for allowing this to be used as part of ‘The March of the Women’ project resource. Practice and Partnership Much has been written about the famous Victorian artist George Watts, and yet the life and work of Mary Watts, and the couple’s progressive socio-political positions as conjugal creative partners and women’s rights supporters, are comparatively neglected. Long-eclipsed by the dominant critical focus on her husband, and known primarily as the worshipping wife of a world-famous artist, Mary was a pioneering professional woman designer and ceramicist as well as a painter, illustrator and writer. Despite her prominence in her own lifetime, she is little-known today. The lack of critical and biographical material on her is disproportionate to the originality, high quality and multi-faceted nature of her oeuvre, encompassing fine art, gesso relief, sculpture, ceramic and textile design, and architecture. Art historian Mark Bills’s chapter on the Wattses in An Artists’ Village: G. F. Watts and Mary Watts at Compton (Bills 2011: 9–23) incorporates the brief sections ‘Married Life’ and ‘A Partnership’, and yet they perpetuate rather than challenge traditional views of the couple. The former section presents Mary ‘in awe of [George], overwhelmed by his reputation […] as devoted and admiring as ever […] in her subservient role’ (2011: 14–15). Bills alludes to, without contesting, the popular public perception of Mary as George’s ‘nurse’ and ‘slave’ who ‘worshipped him blindly’ (2011: 15-16).
