A historical perspective on current issues, such as gender and
class, is applied to art education and rendered through the study
of two specific institutions, the Female School of Design in London
and the Philadelphia School of Design for Women. Sweeping
generalizations are avoided as women's history, intertwined with
men's, unfolds in two cities on opposite continents. Women's
struggles against male domination and prejudice to define for
themselves art education for work provides the common theme uniting
the social issues explored. Through this unique examination of the
relationship between the two schools, women's place in British and
American art education is reclaimed. The specific focus on two art
and design schools should appeal to social, education and art
scholars and historians as well as to students and researchers
interested in women's and gender studies. The relationship between
the two schools of art and design has never been fully explored.
This new study of women's art education, through the lens of these
two schools, is particularly engaging and provoking in light of its
male authorhip.
