The Hornsey Film

The Hornsey Film


About the student revolt at Hornsey College of Art in May 1968, the film, basically a group effort made by staff and students themselves, shows the claims for student autonomy in the face of the educational structure in Britain. The official view on art education, as laid out in the Summerson and Coldstream Reports, is presented appropriately in a classroom situation, while the students' viewpoint is presented in informal groupings.
