Institute of Fine Arts

The Institute of Visual Arts was formed from the Humanities Faculty’s Drawing Department and the Master School of Fine Arts, with the aid of numerous famous artists. The aim of our training programme is to produce artists and teachers in the fields of visual communication, who exhibit an intellectual and practical readiness based in the contemporary and classical arts, backed by a thorough knowledge of professional practice, aesthetics and the social sciences.

During their training students are introduced to the requisites and potentials of artistic expression, and the materials and techniques of their realisation. The studio studies, the technical execution in the external professional workshops, the practical summer courses and study visits all help in the development of the student’s visual character and personality.
