A Crisis of Brilliance: The Slade School and the revolution in British Art, 1910-1919
Dr David Boyd Haycock
In the years leading up to the First World War, the Slade
School of Art in London was the leading establishment in
England for teaching of drawing and painting. Its students
included some of the most important British artists of the first
half of the twentieth century, including David Bomberg, Dora
Carrington, Mark Gertler, Paul Nash, C.R.W. Nevinson,
William Roberts, Stanley Spencer and Edward Wadsworth.
Based on his book, A Crisis of Brilliance: Five Young British
Artists and the Great War (2009), this lecture explores the
fascinating story of these artists’ interlocking lives, and their
artistic education and development.
