Public Art and New Artistic Strategies (MFA)

About

Three major areas are covered during the first three semesters of the programme: 1) Art, Architecture, and History 2) Situations, Interventions, and New Artistic Strategies 3) Art, Society, and Public Space Teaching focuses primarily on the participants' individual art work. The student artists learn to think and react contextually. They hone their ability to react within dynamic and changing parameters. This "Weimar Model" combines theory and practice in interdisciplinary and project-oriented studies. This course emphasises the intensive theoretical investigation of public space. Students are concerned with the historical, philosophical and sociological aspects of public space as well as other topics generated in relationship to the art works in process. Contemporary art production and the history of art and culture are part of the discourse.

Requirements

Entry Requirements

To be admitted to the MFA course of study, the main requirement is completion of either a first art college or academy degree with a minimum of six semesters or a degree determined to be equivalent by the examining committee. The final selection of students is based on documentation of the art work in combination with the aptitude test and, if necessary, an interview. (Please see our website: www.uni-weimar.de/panas.)
