Adelaide School of Arts, Annual Exhibition 1911 - Art needle and stencilled work (embroidery) |
|||
Description |
The Adelaide School of Arts was set up in 1909 when the SA Education Department took over the School of Design previously managed by the Board of Governors of the Public Library, Art Gallery and Museum. It continued in the same location, namely the Jubilee Exhibition Building on North Terrace. It was reorganised in 1916 as the South Australian School of Arts and Crafts. (Register, 1 July 1909, p5; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Australian_School_of_Design). The School held an exhibition of work each year open to the public. GN02209-2219 show work in various categories including needlework, clay modelling wood carving, and fibrous plaster ceiling displayed at the exhibition held in May 1911. That year there were 700 students and 200 staff (Register 25 May 1911, p60). The 1911 exhibition was hailed in the Register as 'the best all round exposition yet held.' Its reporter described the work in a number of categories, in particular art and needlework, wood carving, china painting and metal work. Images GN02209 and GN02217 show the needlework display, which according to the reporter was 'sure to be admired by the fairer sex.' Various embroidered items can be seen including portieres (curtains hung over doors and doorways) in the background, portrait frames, cushions and tablecloths. |
