The MA Fine Art encompasses the full diversity of contemporary
art. In a clear critical context. We facilitate work in painting, drawing,
printmaking, sculpture, installation, photography, video, web, temporary
site-specific or time-based work and performance art. Contemporary art practice
is increasingly interdisciplinary and many artists work both independently
and collaboratively at the boundaries of their disciplines. Projects may
involve either a specialist pursuit of a single medium or a broader, multi-disciplinary
approach that draws on the skills and opportunities provided by our academic
and technical staff
and facilities.
We will encourage you to take advantage of the many opportunities for
collaboration with other schools within one of the leading research universities
in the UK. Core choice modules in Entrepreneurship, Marketing & Branding
and Contemporary Issues are included in the programme to support the development
of your practice. Professional development is an integral part of the
course and is facilitated by the range of artists and art world professionals
who visit the School.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE MA FINE ART PROGRAMME AFTER
2010/11
As from October 2009, students on the MA Fine Art Programme
will not be grouped by individual pathways but will be able to pursue
individual interests in the context of a Fine Art peer group. We will
be offering specialist support in the form of tutoring and facilities
covering all aspects of contemporary fine art practice including:
Painting
Printmaking
Sculpture
Time-based Media
The opportunity to specialise in a particular area
of study is still available but we feel that this inter-disciplinary structure
will offer students a better learning experience and reflect more accurately
the practice of Fine Art at a professional level.
