About the Program

In the Graphics program, the focus is equally on developing ideas and working on images. The central focus is on exploring new and experimental forms of visual language while developing technical skills in the studios and printmaking workshops. Students are encouraged to engage in research-oriented and innovative work, as well as to take risks.

Students are pushed to develop and question their practice in preparation for a professional life in the arts. The program typically lasts 10 semesters, beginning with learning basic skills in Foundation courses and evolving into an intense period of autonomous artistic development. Students have access to exceptional print workshops and technicians, including facilities for animation and Risograph printing. The program includes regular excursions to museums and galleries, as well as opportunities to exhibit work in international institutions.
