Autumn Term Prospectus 2013 Unleashing the artist in everyone www.hampstead-school-of-art.org 1 TERM-TIME COURSES IN FINE ART AND APPLIED ART Our future secured From the Principal, Isabel H Langtry I am delighted to be launching the Autumn Term in our wonderful new building, Kidderpore Hall. This temporary arrangement has been made possible by our partnership with King’s College London and Barratt Homes. Our new purpose-built, permanent home, designed by architects Allies and Morrison, will be ready in 2016. Hampstead School of Art’s new home, Kidderpore Hall At HSoA, tutors work alongside developing artists in an environment unique within the art and education worlds. Our Artist in Residence Programme enriches our students and demonstrates the diversity and place of the practising artist in today’s world. We have a proud history. The school was founded in the 1950s under the direction of local artists Jeannette Jackson and Bernard Gay, with the support and patronage of sculptor Henry Moore. It has since provided a centre of artistic excellence, offering tuition in a wide range of skills by practising artists. Non-selective in its weekly programmes which are offered to the whole community, HSoA is a pioneer of widening participation, with an ethos of providing opportunities to all. We are very lucky to be located in a historic and beautiful part of London, close to Hampstead Heath. We continue to add to the vibrant cultural history of the area, following in the footsteps of Constable and Freud, and the school’s outreach work is an integral part of its DNA. Join us and unleash the artist within you. If you already attend a class, spread the word and introduce your friends to the new HSoA website. www.hampstead-school-of-art.org 2 Find us on facebook www.facebook.com/ Hampstead.School.of.Art Twitter@hsanw3 The school is proud of its wide range of courses taught by practising artists.

The paintings explore the phenomenological sublime, natural phenomena or natural disasters, with man-made interventions creating portals, mixed with beauty and terror within the same frame. The painting process evolves through material coagulations of oil paint, which is poured and blown onto the surface. Caroline List studied Fine Art painting at Chelsea College of Art and Design and exhibits internationally. She currently lives and works in London and teaches Mixed Media painting at Central Saint Martins. REF:WED1830ROSNGU Rosa Nguyen explores natural elements and organic forms with a fusion of Western and Oriental sensibilities.

Inspired by discrete arts such as gardening and ikebana, the Japanese form of flower arranging, Rosa’s work evokes a contemplative aesthetic and a deep-rooted spiritual connection with nature.
