Such an institution can also be called a School of Music and Performing Arts. Music and Performing Arts Academy, College of Music and Performing Arts etc. Conservatories are suitable for students who wish to develop their performance, conduction or composition to a professional standard. Typically they offer a high percentage of practical training combined with academic study and professional development for those considering a career in the creative arts. Individual teaching is the strength of most components. A Conservatory for Music and Performing Arts aims at providing a challenging academic program that fosters a collaborative exchange of ideas and thoughts in a culturally rich environment exemplifying the notion of a global community. It will provide the highest level of education in music, dance and drama, facilitate research and offer an education both practically and theoretically. To enhance and develop students‘ lives in making every student a success in the making. It also stimulates creativity, expression and aesthetic judgment. It also promotes the local culture through the performing art forms and also empowers future educators with effective teaching methods. My thesis topic is a CONSERVATORY FOR MUSIC AND PERFORMING ARTS. In India, due to the rapid growth in fields like Medicine, IT, Architecture etc, the amount of importance which was once given to Indian art forms is not there anymore. So, the aim of this thesis is to restore the once given importance to Indian Performing arts by providing a huge platform to the people. Providing this as a career choice to the many people who wish to do so. For those believe that it is still not too late to restore our interest in performing arts. The aim if this is not something which will be achieved over night but it is not impossible. It is sure to benefit not just the students who hope to become aspiring artistes but also supporting the fact that Arts can also be a successful career choice. My topic is a CONSERVATORY FOR MUSIC AND PERFORMING ARTS. Conservatory for Music and Performing Arts| 6 This conservatory is going to be residential. This project is going to include a campus catering to the requirements of various performing arts like Dance (Indian Classical and Indian Contemporary), Theatre and also Music (Hindustani and Carnatic). It would also include courses and facilities to learn about the broader aspect of art forms all over the world. With this project, India is sure to gain its place on the map of famous Performing Arts and Music Schools all over the world, but still remaining one of its kind. Conservatory for Music and Performing Arts| 7 GLIMPSE OF THE PROJECT The conservatory is proposed to come up right opposite to the Clark‘s Exotica Resort which is nestled away by approximately 2.5 km from the AH43 highway which is the Bellary-Hyderabad highway. The conservatory aims at providing a challenging academic program in music, dance and drama that fosters a collaborative exchange of ideas and thoughts in a culturally rich environment exemplifying the notion of a global community. It seeks to not only provide a unique and all rounded education but also build character and personality in its students and prepare them for careers in music, dance and drama as performers, arrangers, song writers/choreographers/ play writers, composers, producers, teachers and more. As the conservatory is related to the creative arts, it will aim at developing the creative ability in the students and help enjoy their courses by providing sufficient amount of knowledge and listening experience. Conservatory for Music and Performing Arts| 8 The master plan consists or 9 major spaces i.e I. Admin Block II. Auditorium III. Main academic block for music and drama IV. Separate dance studios with attached lecture hall V. Student accommodation VI. Faculty/guest accommodation VII. A display area VIII. A cafeteria IX. Parking. The open air theatre, auditoriums and recording studios do not have to be just for the students‘ benefit. It can also be booked and used for other public shows and projects. Since the project is mainly focusing on the cultural aspects of India, and little lesser on the international arts, the context of the topic has been kept in mind while designing the conservatory. In order to keep it more stuck to the context many traditional elements would be added in the design to give the students a more down- to-earth feeling/experience but at the same time manage to provide them with all the modern technology required to help students gain knowledge and exposure into their field of selection in the performing arts. Conservatory for Music and Performing Arts| 9 LITERATURE STUDIES For my literature studies I have selected the world renowned Juilliard School, New York and the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Cardiff. Both the academies being renowned and experienced in their field really helped me gain a wider perspective of my topic with respect to the functioning, the courses provided, the architectural elements and highlighted elements of the place. While the Juilliard School is placed at the center of the Lincoln center in New York which is such a busy area, the transition between the outside and inside is made well. The Royal Welsh College is more architecturally inclined compared to the Juilliard School with its roof and the illusion of a single building when in fact they happen to be all separate buildings. Both having positives and negatives, I have taken the positives into consideration in my design and also learnt from the negatives and tried to avoid them in my design. I. The Juilliard School, Lincoln Center, New York II. The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, Cardiff, Wales. Conservatory for Music and Performing Arts| 10 The Juilliard School, Lincoln Center, New York INTRODUCTION The Juilliard School located in the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, New York City, is a performing arts conservatory established in 1905. It is informally referred to as Juilliard. The school trains about 850 undergraduate and graduate students in dance, drama, and music. It is widely regarded as one of the world's leading music schools, with some of the most prestigious arts programs. In 2016, QS Quacquarelli Symonds ranked it as the world's best institution for Performing Arts in their inaugural global ranking of the discipline. The School was named for Augustus Juilliard, a wealthy textile merchant whose bequest was used to establish the Juilliard Graduate School in 1924. In 1926, it merged with the Institute for Musical Art to become the Juilliard School of Music. With the additions of a Dance Division in 1951 and Drama Division in 1968, the name was shortened to The Juilliard School. The School was designed by Diller Scofidio and Renfro Architects. One of the most famous halls with perfect acoustics is the Alice Tully Hall which was designed separately by Pietro Belluschi. A walk through Juilliard‘s modern multi-story home in Lincoln Center gives a brief introduction to what their education is all about. Practice rooms – 84 of them, plus 22 more in the residence hall, rehearsal rooms, classrooms and studios signal the disciplined labors Juilliard students devote to their training. 6 large concert and production spaces reflect the school‘s commitment to public performance. At nearly all hours of everyday, the school is filled with activity. Students using most of the 200 plus pianos available to them. In each of the 35 private teaching studios, instructors are helping students refine a phrase, a gesture.

  • Graphicstudio: Uncommon Practice at USF at Tampa Museum of Art
    Graphicstudio: Uncommon Practice at USF at Tampa Museum of Art “Graphicstudio: Uncommon Practice at USF” is the most ambitious and comprehensive show to feature works from the workshop since the survey exhibition of the early years of Graphicstudio at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. in 1991. The exhibit features forty-five years of more than 110 original works by an international array of 45 of the 108 artists who have worked in residence at Graphicstudio. On view February 1 through May 18, 2014, this exhibition was co-organized by the Tampa Museum of Art and the USF Contemporary Art Museum and curated by Jade Dellinger. Highlighting both technical and conceptual breakthroughs, the exhibition includes seminal works spanning Graphicstudio’s forty-five year history (by Robert Rauschenberg, Jim Rosenquist, Ed Ruscha, Allan McCollum, Louise Bourgeois, Jim Dine, and others) with some of its most recent collaborative endeavors by (Christian Marclay, Mark Dion, Teresita Fernández, Los Carpinteros, and Trenton Doyle Hancock). According to Margaret Miller, the Director of Institute for Research in Art – Contemporary Art Museum and Graphicstudio, the exhibition is an opportunity for viewers to see a survey of works that represent leading international artists and affirms that printmaking is a primary medium for many contemporary artists. The exhibition chronicles several aesthetic and technical conversations among artists of different generations. Often times, it is the invention of a new technology that transfixes the artists in residence. As former director, Alan Eaker noted, “It has always been the primary concern of Graphicstudio to make art that was phenomenal and along the way develop the technology to accomplish it.” Founded in 1968 as a non-profit, university-based, collaborative art making facility, Graphicstudio remains unique in its commitment to aesthetic and technical research in the visual arts.

  • George Howe and Modern Architecture
    Travel, Architects, and the Postwar “Grand Tour” By: Denise Costanzo An American architect observed in an essay that “it is a physical impossibility to transport buildings as one does paintings. Therefore, to experience the dome of the Cathedral of Florence by Brunelleschi or the apse and dome of St. Peter’s by Michelangelo, one must be within the space itself.” To assert architecture’s inherent immobility and three-dimensionality is largely uncontroversial, but the next sentence is more contentious: “Architects, in order to explore the problems of contemporary architecture, must necessarily have a specific cultural background which should qualify them for an appreciation of the valid works of the past.”1 Taken together, these axioms require architects to recognize the authority of select historic monuments and to absorb their lessons through direct phenomenal experience. It seems only proper that such statements come from a fellowship application to the American Academy in Rome, established in 1894 to buttress the fin de siècle classical revival known as the “American Renaissance.”2 But this essay dates to 1960, when seeing and venerating history firsthand was not such an obvious requisite for architects. Its author, Michael Graves, is now a household name thanks to his populist high-design products for Target stores (fig. 1). As an architect, he is best known for his historically allusive works of the 1970s onwards. His prominent career has contributed to the reputation of the post-World War II Academy as an ‘incubator’ of postmodern historicism, a category in which he is generally included by critics.3 However, when Graves visited Rome in 1960 he was not a “proto- postmodernist,” but a modernist.

Next in our continuing series is architect Michelle LaFoe, principal at OFFICE52 Architecture. Along with firm partner Isaac Campbell, their collaboration has established itself as one of the city’s most creative and innovative. Whether its local urban infill projects such as House C and its sculpturally designed Light Space or their national competition-winning design for Scott Hall, the soon to be completed Nano-Bio-Energy Technologies Institute building at Carnegie Mellon University, OFFICE 52 exhibits an exceptional ability to create transformational spaces with light, color and materials. In this interview, Michelle shares the remarkable trajectory of her global experiences and the events that have given shape to her process driven design. Portland Architecture: Where did you study architecture and how would you rate the experience? I studied in five places that had different approaches due to my focus at each one, and I learned important things from each of them. They include Rice University, The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, an 18 month Fulbright Grant, The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and Yale University. I started my undergraduate studies at Rice University in the School of Architecture in 1985 and completed my professional architecture degree in 1991. One of the reasons that I chose Rice is that they were a globally-oriented university that encouraged a strong liberal arts education in conjunction with the focused B.

  • I Like Working Here Because of the Bigness — the Big Spaces, the Big Timber
    I have one foot planted firmly in Oregon, The most important thing is the dedication to a studio practice, because and one foot outside in the “other” art world. ultimately success is a byproduct of how hard you’re willing to work. The work in this region is now more about community I like working here because of the bigness — the big spaces, the big timber. rather than just being about the mountains or the ocean. That drama affects my work. It’s made me realize how much the place where I work influences the art I produce. My studio is on the coast. From my window I can see a forest and the remains of a sprawling old sawmill. There’s no art without artists. There’s no museum without artists. From my studio I can see the ships that come in for the Rose Festival. There’s no art community without artists. To keep our community strong we need more artists — and we need to keep them here. From my studio I see the rotunda of the State Capitol. It wasn’t so much that I wanted to come to Oregon, The light here is a little complicated because it changes so much. but more that I didn’t want to go to California or New York. In my sixth-floor studio I can hear the chain of the elevator clanking as it goes between floors, My studio is in my basement. and I can hear crows cracking walnuts on the skylights.
