Scholarships in low-residency international MFA program

Rolling admissions until June 1, 2011

SCHOLARSHIPS

Six scholarships have become available for applicants to the MFA Creative Practice, a two year low-residency program in Berlin and New York City. 

PROGRAM

The MFA Creative Practice is a highly individualized postgraduate program for working artists, teachers and professionals in related fields who are seeking advancement in visual arts and new media. The innovative program consists of three intensive summer residencies with workshops, lectures, critiques, seminars, performances and exhibitions in Berlin and two winter residencies in New York City. In the four semesters between residencies, students create their own course of study realizing individual art and research projects with the support of faculty and self-chosen artist mentors wherever they work and live. The program is geared towards the development of a sustainable artistic praxis rather than training in certain media or genres, challenging students to think conceptually and work creatively in new ways. Current students work with animation, curating, digital media, film, gaming, graphic design, installation, painting, pe! rformance, photography, robotics, sculpture, sound, text, video, virtual reality. More information on program, faculty and residencies can be found online.
