The Umeå Academy of Fine Arts seeks committed, curious and creative students for the 2009 Master Program. Beautifully located on the banks of the Umeälven river in Umeå, a university town and center of trade activities, the Academy is the northernmost of all five Swedish art schools.
Program
Umea Academy of Fine Arts offers a concentrated education in a small, intimate environment while maintaining an international connect through its renowned faculty. Critical discourse on artistic practice and an emphasis on analysis and self-reflection contribute to an understanding of contemporary art located within a larger cultural, social and political context. Guest artists from abroad support the faculty in engaging students in contemporary creative initiatives worldwide.
The program comprises of supervised independent projects, lectures, seminars, master classes and field research. Well-equipped workshops for wood, metal, plaster, bronze, printmaking, photo, video, sound and computer-based work are open to all students. Each student is provided a studio space and all teachers at the school are available as supervisors. In addition to the regular program, Umeå Art Academy engages in two-year long, concentrated projects: for the period 2009-2011, workshops around the theme of "Sustainability" will be held in cities in northern Europe such as Kiruna, Tromsø, and Kirkenes.
