City & Guilds of London Art School
We are a small scale ‘not for profit’ Art School providing a valuable alternative to other models of Art education in the UK at Postgraduate, Undergraduate and Foundation levels. Our mission is to educate artists, craft practitioners and conservators in the specialist skills and creative thinking necessary to meet the challenges of contemporary practice.
We have a particular focus on skills-based teaching and a commitment to cultivate knowledge and curiosity in both the historical and contemporary contexts of our subjects by providing an immersive learning environment that emphasises the dialogue between the eye, the hand, the material and the intellect. We are seeking applications from individuals who can actively and positively engage in the Art School’s community of artists, conservators and craft practitioners.
Artist Glass Fellow
The successful applicant will have an undergraduate and postgraduate qualification in Fine Art/ Sculpture or equivalent, and will be able to demonstrate a commitment to contemporary art practice that involves glass or glass-based practices. The Glass Workshop is a small but dynamic learning facility where students from across the Art School’s courses are introduced to and taught processes involved in working with glass, particularly slumping, casting and construction. The post offers a unique opportunity for an artist to develop their own practice in the context of the Art School’s Glass Workshop, working alongside artist Anne Petters, who runs the facility, with additional technical input from artist Philippa Beveridge.
