Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture
Variant namesBiographical notes:
The Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture was founded in 1946 on farmland near the town of Skowhegan in central Maine. The school provides an unstructured studio space and environment for artists to focus on their work. Faculty consist of resident and visiting artists who provide studio visits and regular criticism. Admission is highly competitive and the school regularly accepts only sixty-five students annually, often out of hundreds of applicants. Students are allowed to attend only once and most are provided at least partial scholarship. Since 1952 the school has also hosted regular public lectures by faculty and other artists. The ever-growing rosters of faculty, students, and lecturers now contain many of the most accomplished artists of the twentieth century and after. The lectures by themselves, as well as the school as a whole, have become an acknowledged vital part of the American art world and an importance resource for the study of post-war art history.
