School of art
During the 1990s it was still possible to find pockets of liberal, free thinking attitudes to making work, surrounded by stunning slightly crumbling decor, large windows, high ceilings and polished parquet flooring. School of Art looks at the environments, where these creative young individuals cultivated ideas and opinions and made work that they believed in whilst still adhering to the old traditions still relevant in the Art School. Students lost in academic systems could break free from the shackles of Uniforms and text books and make their mark, given time to figure out what they wanted and who they were in a free open minded environment.School of Art allows us  to take a closer look at the environments, the individuals, and the styles that made these unique and much loved at a time before work loads, computer consoles, small rooms, Human resources and of course fees.
