Course summary

The MA Fine Art course offers a stimulating community of creative practice in which any curious individual can interrogate what art is, what it can do, and how best they can develop a meaningful artistic role. MA Fine Art at AUB invites those of all disciplines, dispositions, life circumstances, ethnicities, neurodiversity and professional experience to embrace ‘play’ as a driver for self-discovery and cultural transformation. Providing a grounding in Fine Art for students that come from art or non-art backgrounds, it supports practices that are multi-disciplinary and technologically innovative, alongside the discipline-specific such as drawing, photography, sculpture, printmaking, painting, moving image or performance. This course builds on the longstanding reputation of Fine Art at AUB as a specialist art and design university renowned for shaping student employability. Whether aiming to exhibit or curate in contemporary galleries work in the public domain engage in social art enterprise teach in academia or pursue further research, individual aspirations are enabled. MA Fine Art alumni are agile, confident, robust, autonomous, and impactful creatives, well-equipped to face the complex contemporary art climate. Learning how the rules and systems of art operate, involves testing what it means to bend or break them through experimental studio practice and theoretical enquiry. Students contextualise their work in relation to other contemporary artists and connect their ideas with wider discourses, issues and debates. By drilling deeply into subjects of current relevance, they aim to expand the limits of what's possible, known or imagined. In doing so, they work towards being the kind of responsible and credible practitioner that makes valuable contributions to society.
