International Low-Residency MFA ProgramTransart Institute offers the MFA
Creative Practice, a fully accredited international masters program for
working artists with summer residencies in Berlin, winter residencies in
New York and one-on-one advisement during two academic years - wherever
students work and live. Students are free to pursue work in any
art-related genre and to create their own course of study, working
independently and with the support of self-chosen studio and research
advisors. Short periods of intensive residency permit students to
continue with their professional work and keep a balanced personal life
while participating in the program. The majority of Transart students
are emerging and mid-career artists and teachers at tertiary
institutions.
The new MFA Creative Practice is a student-centered, project oriented
postgraduate art program which fosters independent thinking, risk-taking
and the creation of an informed and sustainable art praxis. The
Institute is also a platform for faculty to expand their teaching praxis
by making space for creativity and experimentation. Beyond its
educational objectives, Transart Institute is engaged in building an
international community in support of students, alumni, faculty and
their artistic and academic goals. The institute offers its former
students a virtual and material basis for artistic practice, the
exchange of ideas, opportunities and critiques, supporting individual
and collective growth beyond the duration of the program.
Scholarships Several scholarships are available to students of the MFA
Creative Practice program: Developing Country Scholarships, Achievement
and Merit Scholarships are being awarded. The scholarships provide a
reduction in tuition from 10 to 50%. More information on scholarships
can be found on the Transart Institute website

Portfolio Review for the MFA Creative PracticeTransart Institute seeks
independent, inquisitive and imaginative artist to apply to its MFA
Creative Practice program starting summer 2011. Interested artists,
teachers and all professionals in related fields who are seeking
advancement in visual arts and new media are invited to come to the
Transart winter residency (January 7-9, 2011) for feedback on their
portfolio as suited for admission. In addition, these sessions will give
prospective applicants the opportunity to learn more about the program,
attend a public lecture and mingle with Transart faculty and students in

The Transart ExperienceStudents' experiences at the Institute are
unique and often transformational. NY based artist Virgil Wong found
"The community I've become a part of through Transart is already much
more immersive than what I've developed in ten years of living and
working as an artist in New York City." For composer and artist David
Dunn "perhaps the most important aspect of the program, to me
personally, has been the realization of just how constrained my
professional life can be. I have no lack of colleagues or opportunities
to present my work but my network of association tends to reinforce a
particular set of intellectual and aesthetic assumptions that become
'the' set of assumptions. Transart succeeds at prying apart some of
those entrenched viewpoints to provide space for new ideas and concerns.
The truly international makeup of the students and faculty reinforces
this." More details online.
