Fine Art MA

UCL (University College London)

Develop your potential as a professional artist or researcher in painting, sculpture or fine art media. The 24-month Fine Art MA is a practice-based course that enables you to hone your skills, while exploring ideas of critical awareness, societal and cultural context. Taught at the world-renowned Slade School of Fine Art at UCL, this is an unparalleled opportunity to learn from academic studio staff who are also practising artists. The Fine Art MA course provides a diverse, intellectual and experimental environment in which you can develop your potential as a professional artist and researcher in your chosen studio area. You are supported to expand your critical awareness within the context of Fine Art and to situate your practice within the wider cultural and social context of the contemporary world. The Slade's Fine Art MA course supports interdisciplinary and collaborative approaches to art-making. Within the History and Theory of Art component of the course, you study within thematic taught courses, and develop the ability to frame, create and communicate a sustained enquiry into art historical and theoretical debates in written and spoken form. This course will appeal to anyone interested in pursuing advanced personal research as a thorough preparation for professional practice and/or further doctoral study in the field.
