Course summary
MA Fine Art offers a distinct focus and reassessment of autobiography and the familiar, through differing understandings of creativity. What constitutes a meaningful and useful research methodology in one culture may be considered unknown, unnecessary or redundant in another.You are encouraged to explore and unpick your own working strategies and methods, in the context of broader cultural and educational differences offered by the course and your peers, in order to explore how 鈥榙etour permits access (Jullien, 2004). The resulting tensions form the very fabric of this Fine Art course, as deliberate cross-cultural dialogue provides a vehicle for your working rationales, practices and methodologies. MA Fine Art represents an exciting opportunity for students to challenge and build on their previous achievements and to study at an advanced level. Students deepen their knowledge and their ability to focus on their chosen field in relation to the key aspects that inform it.Set within a community and culture of makers, students engage in dialogue and debate with their peers, both within and across MA pathways.This experience provides dynamic and interactive sessions, which are vital to the enhancement and testing of new thinking and ideas generation as well as offering the broadest available critical arena for discussion of student work. The course is delivered through three equally weighted units of study. The first unit 鈥楽trategies for Practice encourages a re-visiting of a fundamental understanding of materials, methods and contexts of fine art regardless of a students level of experience. Although, some strategies may be familiar, you will be encouraged to analyse and critically evaluate how and why they are manifested in your practice. If your first degree was in a subject other than fine art and may therefore feel less familiar with given working or reflective processes, this unit will give you the opportunity to explore and develop skills and adjust to new and curious ways of working. If you are an experienced practitioner this unit will challenge you to articulate and question some of the basic assumptions that may underpin your practice for instance, why are certain things important We consider this a vital levelling experience for all students.
