The exchange term at BA of Fine Arts provides the student with both theoretical perspectives and individual artistic practice. During the semester we focus on artistic development in an international and contemporary perspective. We encourage all students to use our well-equipped workshops for wood, metal, plaster, bronze, graphics, photo, video or computer-based work. Apart from our workshops there are a number of project rooms that can be booked when you need working space outside of your studio.
Teaching includes lectures, seminars, tutorials in the workshops and studio visits. Every semester we have several guest teachers visiting the school contributing to the education. We also offer a number of open workshops where all students are welcome to participate.
