AA School of Architecture : ウィキペディア英語版
Architectural Association School of Architecture

The Architectural Association School of Architecture in London, commonly referred to as the AA, is the oldest independent school of architecture in the UK and one of the most prestigious and competitive in the world. Its wide-ranging programme of exhibitions, lectures, symposia and publications have given it a central position in global discussions and developments within contemporary architectural culture.
==History==

The foundation of the Architectural Association, the precursor to the school, was a reaction against the customary way of architectural training where young men were articled to established architects. This practise offered no guarantee for educational quality, let alone professional standards. It was rife with vested interests and open to abuse, dishonesty and incompetence.〔Edward Bottoms, (Introductory lecture to AA Archives ), February 2010〕
This situation and the reluctance of calling for programs prescribed by the state (as epitomised by France) led two articled pupils, Robert Kerr (1823–1904) and Charles Gray (1827/28–1881), to propose a systematic course of training provided by the students themselves.〔
Immediately following a merger with the already existing Association of Architectural Draughtsmen, the first formal meeting under the name of the Architectural Association took place in May 1847 at Lyons Inn Hall, London.〔(Records of the Architectural Association )〕 Kerr became its first president, 1847–48.〔(Past Presidents of the Architectural Association )〕
The AA School was formally established in 1890. In 1901, it moved premises to the former Royal Architectural Museum. In 1917, it moved again, to its current premises in Bedford Square, central London (it has since acquired additional London premises in John Street and a site at Hooke Park in Dorset). The school has also acquired property on Morwell Street behind Bedford Square, which it uses as studio space and there are plans for further expansion. Women were first admitted as students to the AA School during the First World War in 1917.〔Minutes of an Ordinary General Meeting of the Architectural Association, 17 July 1917; and interleafed circular from AA President, H.M. Fletcher, alteration to By-law No.17 in AA Archive Box C103..〕
In the 1960s, the school's free thinking philosophy provided a platform for radically new concepts like the Fun Palace by Cedric Price and the establishment and long lasting legacy of the Archigram group.〔 Outstanding alumni were likely to stay on or return to the AA as teachers as exemplified by Pritzker Prize winners Rem Koolhaas and his pupil Zaha Hadid.
Put on a decidedly global basis by Alvin Boyarsky (Chairman from 1971 to 1990),〔 after more than 150 years, the AA is one of the world's most international and prestigious schools of Architecture, attracting and selecting students and staff from more than 60 countries worldwide, with a long list of visiting critics, lecturers and other participants from around the world each year. The students of the AA have been addressed by many eminent figures, from John Ruskin and George Gilbert Scott in the 19th century, to more recently Richard Rogers, an alumnus of the school.
