A novel investigation into art pedagogy and constructions of
national identities in Britain and Ireland, this collection
explores the student-master relationship in case studies ranging
chronologically from 1770 to 2013, and geographically over the
national art schools of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Essays explore the manner in which the Old Masters were deployed in
education; fuelled the individual creativity of art teachers and
students; were used as a rhetorical tool for promoting cultural
projects in the core and periphery of the British Isles; and united
as well as divided opinions in response to changing expectations in
discourse on art and education. Case studies examined in this book
include the sophisticated tradition of 'academic' inquiry of
establishment figures, like Joshua Reynolds and Frederic Leighton,
as well as examples of radical reform undertaken by key individuals
in the history of art education, such as Edward Poynter and William
Coldstream. The role of 'Modern Masters' (like William Orpen,
Augustus John, Gwen John and Jeff Wall) is also discussed along
with the need for students and teachers to master the realm of art
theory in their studio-based learning environments, and the
ultimate pedagogical repercussions of postmodern assaults on the
academic bastions of the Old Masters.
