Josef Albers has had a far-reaching influence as an art educator. He was both a student and, later, a professor at the Bauhaus. Following the closure of the school by the Nazis in 1933, Albers emigrated to the US and took up a position at Black Mountain College, North Carolina, and then at the design department at Yale University. His students included Eva Hesse, Robert Rauschenberg and Robert Motherwell.

Michael Craig-Martin is a major figure within Conceptual art practice, as well a highly regarded educator. In his talk, Craig-Martin focuses on the impact of Albers as an artist and teacher.
