In 1933 a radical school opened in rural North Carolina and an artistic revolution was born. It was an experimental and influential institution of higher education, renowned for its avant-garde approach to learning. It brought together a remarkable community of artists, musicians, poets, and scholars, fostering a cross-disciplinary and collaborative environment.

This talk introduces Black Mountain College, its educational philosophies and how it intended to shape the future of art and learning. We will look at the core of the school’s curriculum specifically focusing on the art and pedagogical work of the school’s first art teachers Anni and Josef Albers.
