History

[edit]
Students at the Slade in 1905

The school was founded in University College on 2 October 1871 following an endowment from the will of the lawyer and philanthropistFelix Slade (1788–1868) who bequeathed £35,000 to establish three Chairs inFine Art, to be based at Oxford University, Cambridge University andUniversity College London. An additional six scholarships of £50 per annum were endowed to University College. The college itself provided £5000 to build the Slade School as part of the college quadrangle in Gower Street, premises which the School still occupies today.[5]

Distinguished past teachers includeHenry Tonks,Wilson Steer,Randolph Schwabe,William Coldstream,Andrew Forge,Lucian Freud,John Hilliard,Bruce McLean,Alfred Gerrard andPhyllida Barlow.Edward Allington was Professor of Fine Art and Head of Graduate Sculpture until his death in 2017.[6][7]

Two of its most important periods were immediately before, and immediately after, the turn of the twentieth century, described by Henry Tonks as its two 'crises of brilliance'. The first included the studentsAugustus John,William Orpen andPercy Wyndham Lewis; the second – which has been chronicled inDavid Boyd Haycock'sA Crisis of Brilliance: Five Young British Artists and the Great War – included the studentsDora Carrington,Mark Gertler,Paul Nash,C.R.W. Nevinson andStanley Spencer.[8]

Another notable period followed the Second World War, under the directorship ofWilliam Coldstream, who brought inLucian Freud to teach, and whose students includedPaula Rego,Michael Andrews and the filmmakerLorenza Mazzetti. Coldstream was responsible for the creation of theSlade Film Department, the first in any British university, in 1960, withThorold Dickinson as chief lecturer. Filmmakers associated with the Slade Film Department includeDerek Jarman andPeter Whitehead.

Slade Centre for Electronic Media in Fine Art

[edit]

The Slade Centre for Electronic Media in Fine Art (SCEMFA) was opened in 1995. The centre provides opportunities for research intoelectronic media and fine art with the goal of contributing to debate on national and international levels. The Slade had previously been home to Malcolm Hughes's Computer and Experimental Department in the 1970s.

In 1997 SCEMFA presentedCollision, a public lecture series by artists, writers, and curators working withinteractivity,telematics, and digital works. This exhibition was followed bySpontaneous Reaction, a week-long seminar funded by theArts Council of England, which took a critical look at interactivity with participants from a variety of disciplines, including psychology, architecture, andcomputer science.

Throughout 1998, SCEMFA collaborated with Channel 4 UK to organiseCached, a monthly event held at theInstitute of Contemporary Arts, London. Funded by the Arts Council, this series investigated the conceptual and practical issues of producing art for the internet through a series of artists presentations.

Art collection

[edit]

The Slade art collection was started when the yearly prizes awarded to top students was combined with a collection scheme in 1897 and the Summer Composition Prize and the Figure and Head Painting Prizes began to be kept by the school.[9] Works by students and staff of the Slade School of Fine Art form the basis of the UCL Art museum today.[9]
