Robert Mills Art Teacher “Reaching a milestone birthday and
dropping down to part-time teaching has brought many benefits, including spending more time using my Freedom Oyster Card visiting London's Art galleries and museums during the week. The extra headroom in my new schedule has so far permitted an inaugural trip to the 60th Venice Biennale with my oldest friend and a visit to Casa Morandi in Bologna where it was simply life-affirming to see Giorgio Morandi's preserved studio, with the very same still-life objects and set-ups I have used as the heart of my Year 7 scheme of work for as many years as I care to remember. I always promised myself I would organise an exhibition of some of the images I made during my Berlin sabbatical, and as a warm-up or dry-run submitted an image for 'Lions and Unicorns - 50 Years of Royal College of Art Alumni' a group show at a small independent gallery. The self-doubt created by the process was an unexpected role reversal to that of the classroom, although the opening night was a joyful reunion.”
