	Chouinard Art Institute - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Chouinard Art Institute was a professional art school founded in 1921 in Los Angeles, California by Nelbert Murphy Chouinard (1879-1969).
		Born in Montevideo, Minnesota, Chouinard studied at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York and in Munich, Germany.
		Nelbert Chouinard's age and health led to Walt and Roy Disney along with Lulu May Von Hagen, then chairman of the Los Angeles Conservatory of Music, overseeing a 1961 merger of the Chouinard Art Institute with the Music Conservatory to create the California Institute of the Arts.

		Since the closing of the Institute in 1972, it is remarkable there has never been an exhibition that attempted to describe the breadth of her dynamic legacy.
		Chouinard's contribution, it was immediately apparent that OMA's galleries were far too small to adequately honor her achievement.
		This is the great achievement of Chouinard, where the artist-faculty prepared the way for creative minds to discover their own path for themselves, and offered the example of tough-minded dedication that would keep them on track regardless of external standards.

		The 8-by-32-foot, oil-on-cement painting was recently acquired by the Santa Barbara Museum of Art and transplanted from its original setting in Murphy's garden in the Pacific Palisades to its new home in a pavilion in front of the museum [see "Front Page," Nov. '02].

		His formal art education consisted of attending technical school and art classes at night, studying the Old Masters in museums, and assisting fresco painters.
		He was profoundly influenced by both Italian and Spanish art, Naples having been ruled by Spain almost continuously from the mid-16th to the late 18th century.
		His admiration for fresco tradition, his preference for ambitious subjects addressed on a grand scale, and the baroque sweep of his style all reflect the heritage of Italian art; his high seriousness of purpose, as well as a certain preoccupation with tragedy and death, can be attributed to the influence of Spain.

	NEA News Room: 2005 National Medal of Arts - OLLIE JOHNSTON
		Born in 1912 in Palo Alto, California, Ollie Johnston attended Stanford University and the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles, studying under Pruett Carter.
		His humor, sensitivity and acting abilities proved to have lasting appeal and his skills at communicating these qualities in his drawings earned him a spot as one of Walt Disney's "nine old men." This irreverent reference had nothing to do with age but rather referred to the studio's elite inner circle of animators.
		One of Johnston's proudest accomplishments was his work on the 1942 film Bambi, which pushed the art form to new levels in its portrayal of animal realism.
