Potter leaves in 1977<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Potter envisioned the Construction School as a British version of the Bauhaus, which would imbue the students with an idiosyncratic mix of Modernism, the Arts and Crafts movement, anarchism, environmentalism and Christianity.<\/p>\n<p>The Construction School, founded by Norman Potter with a small group of collaborators, was a bold attempt to establish an experimental design school in a provincial English context. The first phase of Potter\u2019s involvement (1964 to 1968) placed an emphasis on interdisciplinary practices and collaboration. The second phase (1975 to 1977) went further, defined by a radical effort to decentralise the educational structure of the school. The school was a product of major changes in the structure of art and design education in the UK. In 1960 a new qualification, the Diploma in Art and Design (DipAD) was introduced, intended to formalise standards in the field. A process of granting accreditation to colleges to offer this new qualification began, with brutal results: only 61 courses were approved to run the DipAD from over 200 applicants. The West of England College of Art lost out in this process, and urgent action was required to found a new course and resubmit for DipAD accreditation. Norman Potter, then teaching at the RCA in London, was approached and given the opportunity to found such a course in Bristol. This difficult inception is typical of much of the school\u2019s story: institutional resistance was a recurrent pressure. The efforts of the school to define itself were constantly foiled, and as early as early as 1966 it was in sufficient trouble to solicit a petition in its defence by a significant list of architects and designers. In 1968 the student sit-in at Hornsey College of Art brought these questions to the attention of the public and prompted extensive discussion on the function of art and design education.<\/p>\n<p><em>Research Resources:http:\/\/www.spikeisland.org.uk\/blogs\/2012\/07\/06\/on-the-construction-school<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.educator13.lsd-studio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-24-at-8.35.36-AM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-114\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2013-09-24 at 8.35.36 AM\" src=\"https:\/\/www.educator13.lsd-studio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-24-at-8.35.36-AM.png\" width=\"658\" height=\"455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.educator13.lsd-studio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-24-at-8.35.36-AM.png 658w, https:\/\/www.educator13.lsd-studio.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Screen-Shot-2013-09-24-at-8.35.36-AM-300x207.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 658px) 100vw, 658px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>CalArts <\/strong><em>Louise<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What is the program?<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>School of Design, CalArts<\/li>\n<li>Established 1970; in late1975 3-D closes and\u00a02-D absorbed into Art School<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Focus on addressing world problems and social issues<\/li>\n<li>Diverse interests and faculty including psychology, politics, architecture, product design, graphic design.

It took place one year after Italy: the new domestic landscape, the unifying exhibition which gave rise to the radical\u2019s fame. In attendance at casabella\u2019s headquarters in Milan were Lapo Binazzi and the rest of UFO, Germano Celant, Ugo la Pietra, Alessandro Mendini, Franco Raggi, Ettore Sottsass jr., Archizoom Associati, Remo Buti, Riccardo Dalisi, 9999, Gaetano Pesce, Gianni Pettena, Press, Superstudio and Zzigguratt.<br \/>\nThe size of the group was massive and scope of the project was highly focused. The goal was to form a series of seminars and workshops addressing \u201cthe study and use of natural techniques and materials\u201d symbolized by rudimentary tools like a hammer. Superstudio began acquiring and documenting the simple tools found in southern Italian towns, eventually concentrating on the walking stick as an artifact.<br \/>\nUnfortunately Global Tool\u2019s vision was too particular and Superstudio was not the only group. It seems impossible to have groups like Archizoom, who embraced the effects of modernization collaborating with Superstudio or Gianni Pettena. Global Tools eventually failed in 1975 after only a single seminar and two magazines. This moment also highlighted the divisions amongst what seemed to be a focused and unified group of radical architects three years prior at INDL.<br \/>\nWhile groups like Superstudio and Archizoom are often shown in tandem, they seem more like foils. Archizoom chose to explore the new tenants of a modern Italy, whereas Superstudio began to turn to the past.<\/p>\n<p><em>Resources:http:\/\/rolu.terapad.com\/?fa=contentNews.newsDetails&amp;from=list&amp;newsID=191441<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bruno Munari Workshops (1980)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Distinguishing characteristics<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alternative to learning techniques and rote by encouraging experimentation in books<\/li>\n<li>In conjunction with workshop series with children.<\/li>\n<li>Sets up scenarios and then<\/li>\n<li>Did some workshops with adults to put into&#8230; \u00a0&#8220;Play with Art&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Do it yourself by yourself<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Why did it emerge?
