John Beck and Matthew Cornford: the Art Schools of the East Midlands
Type:Exhibition
Bonington Gallery, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, NG1 4GG
Friday 22 September 2023 - Saturday 2 December 2023
Venue: Bonington Gallery
Time: 10am - 3pm
A photographic exhibition focusing on the region's art schools, and the vital role that they play in the cultural life of the cities.
This exhibition is the latest iteration of John Beck and Matthew Cornford's ambitious Art School Project, to track down and document all of the UK's art schools – including the iconic Waverley building at Nottingham Trent University.
Featuring new photographic work depicting all the art school buildings of the East Midlands, or the sites upon which they stood, the exhibition raises questions about the role of the arts in relation to education, community and history and offers a space to reflect on what the future may hold for cultural institutions in the towns and cities.
There will also be a programme of public events exploring the themes of the exhibition, that will be announced soon. In our foyer space, our Vitrines exhibition, Art [School] Histories will present materials dedicated to the history and future of the Nottingham School of Art & Design here at NTU.
