Location of De Montfort University

This course provides an educational experience which builds on the notion of individualised practice in Fine Art, extending it to promote a vigorous critical and contextual understanding of your practice as a whole. The course offers practice and theory in painting, sculpture, printmaking, video, drawing, photography, and combinations in a multi-disciplinary format.

The course is structured around a flexible timetable of studio tutorials, formal group critiques, seminars and visiting artists' programmes. You are challenged on presentation, installation, curational and representational issues in your practice. You will work in studio spaces alongside research students and are supported by workshops and facilities for all disciplines, including lens-based and electronic media.

Staff are practising artists and individual members of the Fine Art team have exhibited recently in the USA, Germany, the Netherlands, France, Norway, Italy, Japan and Australia and at large regional centres.

The MA course culminates in a final graduating show, and you exhibit your practice on an on-going basis from year one. Students on the course have received awards from regional galleries, as well as exhibiting regionally and internationally.

Why this course?

* Develop a professional body of work and expertise in contemporary practice

* All Fine Art academic staff are practising artists, with recent exhibitions in Kyoto, Sydney and Antwerp
