  • CVAN Open Letter to the Secretary of State for Education
    Press Release: Wednesday 12 May 2021 Leading UK contemporary visual arts institutions and art schools unite against proposed government cuts to arts education ● Directors of BALTIC, Hayward Gallery, MiMA, Serpentine, Tate, The Slade, Central St. Martin’s and Goldsmiths among over 300 signatories of open letter to Education Secretary Gavin Williamson opposing 50% cuts in subsidy support to arts subjects in higher education ● The letter is part of the nationwide #ArtIsEssential campaign to demonstrate the essential value of the visual arts This morning, the UK’s Contemporary Visual Arts Network (CVAN) have brought together leaders from across the visual arts sector including arts institutions, art schools, galleries and universities across the country, to issue an open letter to Gavin Williamson, the Secretary of State for Education asking him to revoke his proposed 50% cuts in subsidy support to arts subjects across higher education. Following the closure of the consultation on this proposed move on Thursday 6th May, the Government has until mid-June to come to a decision on the future of funding for the arts in higher education – and the sector aims to remind them not only of the critical value of the arts to the UK’s economy, but the essential role they play in the long term cultural infrastructure, creative ambition and wellbeing of the nation. Working in partnership with the UK’s Visual Arts Alliance (VAA) and London Art School Alliance (LASA) to galvanise the sector in their united response, the CVAN’s open letter emphasises that art is essential to the growth of the country.

  • A Study of Winifred Knights, 1915-1933
    A Study of Winifred Knights, 1915-1933 Rosanna Eckersley Department of Art History and World Art Studies University of East Anglia A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2015 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any formation derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract Winifred Knights, 1899-1947, was a student at the Slade School of Art from 1915, where she developed a decorative manner of rhythmic, repetitive forms, one form of cautious modernism. In 1920 she was the first woman to win the Rome Prize in Decorative Painting. The award was for three years at the British School at Rome. Knights often chose to base her paintings on biblical subjects, or the lives of saints. She was not religious and I argue that these stories, which were well-known in Britain at the time, were vehicles to represent the lives of women and families in the unsettled years during and after WWI. Many women artists have depicted domestic scenes, but Knights chose the exterior and multi-figure compositions, including many self-portraits. She used these compositions to explore women‟s vulnerability, rebellion against male control, maternity and the self-sufficiency of a women‟s community. Personal material is present in all her work and much of it deals with the traumas she suffered.

  • Straw Poll FINAL Copyless Pt Views
    Straw poll: Painting is fluid but is it porous? Liz Rideal … the inventor of painting, according to the poets, was Narcissus… What is painting but the act of embracing by means of art the surface of the pool?1 Alberti, De Pictura, 1435 Thoughts towards writing this paper address my concerns about a society that appears increasingly to be predicated on issues surrounding accountabil- ity. I was conscious too, of wanting to investigate perceptions of what has now become acceptable vocabulary, that of the newspeak of 'art practice' and 'art research'. The discussion divides into four unequal parts. I introduce attitudes towards art and making art as expressed in quotations taken from artists’ writings. An historical overview of the discipline of Painting within the Slade School of Fine Art, and where we stand now, as we paint ‘on our island’ embedded within University College London’s Faculty of Arts and Humanities. I report the results of a discreet research project: a straw poll of colleagues in undergraduate painting, stating their thoughts about the teaching of painting. Finally, conclusions drawn from the jigsaw of information. [For the conference, this paper will be delivered against a projected back- drop featuring a selection of roughly chronological images relating to the history and people connected to the Slade over the past 150 years.] The texts written by artists have been selected to reveal the position of art as an un-exact science that requires exacting discipline, dedication and an open mind in order to create art works. Art that can communicates ideas, emotions and instincts in a way that reflects an aesthetic balance of intellect and cre- ativity.
