Like the rest of the nation, we at CoS can’t wait to see the documentary on the intense difficulties and pressures that come with a being an art student at Goldsmiths. Unfairly dismissed by many media commentators as a terrible bunch of wankers desperate for any glimmer of art world sprinkledust, this is the chance for students at the esteemed art school to show to the nation that in fact they are really decent people drawn together by wanting to make the world an ethically better place entirely populated by Jacques Ranciere.
