Figure 1: Bill Lee and Arthur Blackburn, Circulation Department Manual Attendants, possibly late 1950s, MA/15/37, No. V143, V&A Archive, © Victoria and Albert Museum, London. Joanna Weddell University of Brighton with the Victoria and Albert Museum AHRC Part-time Collaborative Doctoral Award AH/I021450/1 3 BLANK 4 Thesis Abstract This thesis establishes the post-war regional impact of the Victoria and Albert Museum’s Circulation Department (Circ) which sent touring exhibitions to museums and art schools around the UK in the period 1947-1977, an area previously unexplored to any substantial depth. A simplistic stereotypical dyad of metropolitan authority and provincial deference is examined and evidence given for a more complex flow between Museum and regions. The Introduction outlines the thesis aims and the Department’s role in the dissemination of art and design. The thesis is structured around questions examining the historical significance of Circ, the display and installation of Circ’s regional exhibitions, and the flow of influence between regions and museum. Context establishes Circ not as a straightforward continuation of Cole’s Victorian mission but as historically embedded in the post-war period.

Its focus is Newbery’s thirty-three year association with the Glasgow School of Art. The first two chapters examine Newbery’s early life and his educational background in Dorset and London where he attended the National Art Training School at South Kensington. John Beard, Newbery’s headmaster at the Bridport General School in Dorset, the educational theory of Friedrich Froebel and the modern approach to art teaching of Edward Poynter the Principal of the National Art Training School are all identified as formative influences in the development of Newbery’s own approach to pedagogy at Glasgow.

University building activity is frequently justified by architects and managers as responding to ‘market forces’. These claims are reflected in institutional discourses about campus redesign and a growing academic and media interest in the organisational space of universities. Discourses often emphasise the positive transformative effects of redevelopment without considering the wider impact on the everyday life of the university. This thesis explores the relationship between institutional space and the construction of individual, social and professional identities, using a case study describing a ten-year campus transformation project at Manchester Metropolitan University. Over this period, the university aimed to: consolidate the number of individual campuses from seven to two; provide new ‘world-class’ facilities for staff and students; create opportunities for ‘improved’ teaching and research activity; and develop the university brand. In real terms, this meant closing existing campus locations and relocating staff and students to an ‘iconic’ new building containing open plan academic offices and flexible student pods.

    Make it yours Manchester School of Architecture Start building a reputation +44 (0)161 247 6969 www.msa.ac.uk Who we are The Manchester School of Architecture (MSA) was established in 1996 as the result of an innovative Contents collaboration between The University BA Architecture 08 BArch Bachelor of Architecture 12 of Manchester and the Manchester MA Architecture and Urbanism 16 Metropolitan University. Postgraduate Research 18 Make it yours Opportunities This amalgamation created one of the largest Architecture Schools in the UK and, by drawing together considerable resources and expertise in teaching and research in the two universities, it is able to offer a wide range of options for its staff and students. Indeed, the MSA has succeeded in gaining a reputation for the variety, vitality and quality of the work and achievements of its students. This is not only reflected in appraisals by professional institutions (the Architects Registration Board (ARB) and the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA)), but is also demonstrated by the number and variety of prizes gained externally ranging from the RIBA student awards, through national and international students competitions for building design, to national competitions for computer-aided design. As a member of the MSA, you are a student of both universities. This means that at the end of your time here you receive your degree jointly from both institutions and become a graduate of both. The School offers professionally recognised degrees in Architecture at all levels. The programmes follow the standard pattern of recognised architectural education; namely, five years of full-time study divided between two periods of practical training.
