The Art Academy (2012)

The Art Academy follows the improbable story of a tiny school that flourished and adapted over seven decades to become what it is today - the Memphis College of Art. Think of it as the little art school that could. In its original incarnation, the Memphis Academy of Arts was born out of a great schism between the old Victorian style of art education and the new Modernism of the 1930s. 'It was a revolution,' as former student Carroll Cloar put it.
