In Master of Arts in Fine Art with a specialization in Curating, students will study an innovative curriculum alongside a purposefully small group of peers, uniquely designed to offer critical, collaborative and personal approaches to curating in contemporary cultural contexts.
Students will gain knowledge and insights into contemporary arts and cultural practices and debates, taught by experts in the field with a long history of excellence in curating. This, and the extensive range of creative resources available across the university's City Campus, will equip them to work at a professional level, plugging into the contemporary discourse of regional, national, and international communities.
Whether students are a recently qualified arts graduate, or a well-established professional looking to develop yourself academically, this course offers everything the students need to push their practice to the next level.
Students will be perfectly placed studying in Bristol, a socially and politically progressive city, widely recognised as one of the most creatively influential settings in the UK. Here they will discover a range of galleries, artists' groups and studios plus art projects involving students and graduates.
MA Fine Art: Curating is based on Bristol's historic harbourside at Arnolfini. Situated above this internationally renowned centre for contemporary art, students will be at the heart of Bristol's creative and cultural community, with access to UWE Bristol's City Campus and all it has to offer. Here, they'll develop their skills and knowledge alongside like-minded creative talent.
Students will also benefit from working in close collaboration with one of the celebrated partner galleries, museums, or other cultural institutions during the course.
