Enjoying a growing resurgence in the last decade, recent exhibitions such as Painters Painters at the Saatchi Gallery and upcoming Radical Figures: Painting in the New Millennium at the Whitechapel gallery demonstrate a renewed interest in painting and acknowledgement of its unique and innovative position within contemporary visual practice. Painting defines its particular practice through the peculiarities of the painted field; the making materiality of the unique object; a globally acknowledged cultural history; the dedicated and dynamic relationship of the painted object to the painter. The MA Painting course will explore this innovative and expansive territory in-depth, dedicating itself to specialist study at the postgraduate level. This specialism is reflected in the course content, delivery, and dedicated studio/workshop facilities. Staffed by leading practitioners and academics, focused painting technicians, and visiting experts in the field; delivering a program built upon the cross-fertilization of practical application with an understanding of contemporary painting discourse. Further engagement with practicing artists, art world professionals, and partner institutions will enable a connected and informed masters student. You will, through individual studio practice and a dedicated program, come to an advanced level of understanding of both painting theory and application whilst mapping your position within this territory.
