What do you learn on a Fine Arts degree course?
A degree in Fine Arts focuses on individual artistic development. The aim is to sharpen one's own ability to express oneself, learn different techniques and critically reflect on creative concepts.
The central contents include, among others:
- Artistic practice: development of own projects in areas such as painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, video or digital media.
- Techniques and materials: acquisition of manual and digital skills - from traditional methods to new media.
- Art history and theory: examination of art historical trends, contemporary art and social contexts.
- Conception and presentation: Development, realization and professional presentation of artistic works.
- Interdisciplinary projects: Collaboration with other disciplines such as design, architecture or media art.
Fine art encompasses a variety of visual forms of expression that often appear as physical-spatial works - such as paintings, sculptures, photographs, installations or digital works. The transitions between the various art forms are often fluid. Studying offers the opportunity to develop your own style, to develop creatively and to build up an individual portfolio. Each University of Applied Sciences or academy can set different priorities - be it in classical painting, experimental media art or interdisciplinary work.
