| Set up in 1999, The Independent
Art School has involved many people as it has developed. It began
as The New Hull School of Art, a two week school set up at the RED
gallery in Hull as a statement against the imposition of modularity
onto the fine art course at Hull School of Art & Design.
The Independent Art School Conference followed
in October 2000, running alongside Hull Time Based Arts ROOT festival.
Where the work-in school at the RED gallery had been a statement
against University policies and the lack of decision-making power
held by both students and staff, the Conference began to question
wider issues surrounding art education and what it should or could
be.
Models
of Practice
followed in february 2001 at Dilston Grove, a Cafe Gallery venue in
London. This time the emphasis moved onto dialogue about peoples own
art practice. It had become evident at the Conference that such events
could be seen as 'temporary schools' in themselves. The IAS moved
away from simply questioning educational structures to creating its
own educational environments.

| The INDEPENDENT ART SCHOOL
An evolving project based on a questioning
and D-I-Y ethos, manifesting itself through non-institutional environments
which can be described as "temporary schools". Students,
artists and lecturers who participate in these events take on, at
once, all and none of these roles. You are welcome to use this web
site as a source for information or to become more involved within
the Independent Art School.
