Fine Art FD

The FD Fine Art is suitable for those interested in developing their practice as an artist whilst developing skills as a curator. The programme aims to widen the undergraduates field of industry employment skills as well as introduce them to a multitude of approaches to art practice, helping to develop your existing skills. Through independent practice and taught workshops in generous studio spaces, you will be guided in the development of your technical skills as well as gaining philosophical and academic understandings of the subject, to be used in your own expression and guide you through the curation of individual’s portfolio as well as external bodies of work.<br/><br/>The staff team are experienced practitioners or researchers in the field, who work closely with you to develop studio skills, hone your critical eye, and increase contextual awareness. You will explore models of practice in contemporary art, from studio and gallery-based work to site-responsive and client-led projects, using a variety of disciplines and media whilst working towards your specialism. Skills for securing funding streams, client projects and commission work will also ready students for working directly or freelance as practising artists and/or curators.
