Overview

Drawing on interviews, conversations, and writings from participants of the ‘A’ Course (1969-1973) alongside film footage and never-before-published photographs and archival documentation, the exhibition reveals student projects spanning four years of inventive instruction by its four tutors, Peter Kardia (ne Atkins), Garth Evans, Peter Harvey and Gareth Jones, gathering project descriptions, situations, instructions to students, correspondence, notes, photographs and reports, together with student-initiated games and actions.
