The studio art program of American University is pleased to introduce MFA STUDIO BERLIN, an interdisciplinary, MFA-level summer program in Berlin, Germany, designed to provide an integrated and residency-like experience for graduate course credit. The 6-week program provides:
-
studio and meeting space in partnership with an established and independent artist residency program;
-
housing in shared furnished apartments in a central Berlin neighborhood;
-
a visiting-artist and studio-visit program focused on the experiences of working artists and active artist organizations in Berlin.
This program is organized to provide a productive and integrated connection with the unique creative environment of Berlin. Rather than being sequestered away in a university building or a rented warehouse, participants will work alongside active international artists in the studio; live in a neighborhood overflowing with Berlin’s mix of cultures; and meet artists and organizers who will share their career trajectories and experiences.
The program costs include:
-
Course tuition
-
Housing
-
Studio space
-
Local transport (universal pass for subway, tram, and buses)
-
Visiting artist program
-
Student insurance
-
Admissions to group and special events
Application for the program is made through American University’s Study Abroad office, with review of applicants by the program directors. The program carries 3 hours of graduate credit as a studio course through the Department of Art’s MFA program; participation in the program without enrollment in the course is not possible.
