Art school is too airless, inaccessible, and out of touch. Here's how the artist Mark Leckey is trying to change that:
Artists have inevitably been tempted to imagine alternatives to formal art school training ever since it first arose during the Renaissance in the form of academies, with their refined, traditional, and exclusionary associations.
Earlier this year, Tracey Emin also announced plans to establish TKE Studios in Margate, with the focus on mixing different generations and encouraging critical rigor.In a still more ambitious bid to improve access to the arts, artist Mark Leckey piloted his Music and Video Lab this summer. The free month-long art course is intended to attract people aged from 18 to 25.
It’s an idea I’ve been carrying around with me for a long time. The idea is to try and reach people who wouldn’t normally have that kind of access. Redruth is a deprived area and we wanted to find young people where it’s not already an inevitable development of their education to go to university. They’d then go on their laptops and me or Liam would speak to them individually. We’d talk about whether anything that they’d seen had interested them or fired off an idea and then I was showing them devices—sonic and visual tricks—that they can use. The curriculum was just trying to provide them with both the tools and the thought to edit creatively.
