New York School of Applied Design for Women : ウィキペディア英語版 | New York School of Applied Design for Women The New York School of Applied Design for Women, established in 1892, was an early design school for women in New York City. It became the New York Phoenix School of Design in 1944 and in 1974 merged with the Pratt Institute to form the Pratt-Phoenix School of Design. ==History== The school was established in 1892 by philanthropist Ellen Dunlap Hopkins as part of the Arts and Crafts movement. It aimed to "afford women practical instruction which will enable them to earn a livelihood by the application of ornamental design to manufacture and the numerous Arts and Crafts" (Bailey). The school provided courses in book cover design, stained glass, textile and wallpaper design, illustration, etc., with a salesroom for student products. The school was originally located at 200 West 23rd Street. In 1909, the school moved to a new building at 160 Lexington Avenue designed by Harvey Wiley Corbett and partially funded by J.P. Morgan and other wealthy individuals. Before 1912, the New York School of Applied Design for Women was, in a minor capacity, associated with Columbia University. Architecture students received part of their professional training in the offices of practicing architects. One of these "ateliers" was run by Harvey Wiley Corbett, an architect and instructor at the school. Corbett eventually became President of the school in 1938, a position he held until his death in 1954. The school reincorporated as the co-educational New York Phoenix School of Design in 1944, merging with Lauros M. Phoenix's art institute that was founded in 1925. In 1974, the New York Phoenix School of Design merged with the Pratt Institute to form the Pratt-Phoenix School of Design. The 160 Lexington Avenue building was designated a New York City Landmark in 1977.〔
