Artistic Encounter
About
About the course
Course content
In the third year the artistic practice is contextualised and leads to public artistic encounter. The students plan, program and carry out the encounter in close collaboration with an internal or external coordinator. Each student presents their bachelor's project (solo or in collaboration with fellow students), which has been developed and realised during the third year in dialogue with supervisors and peers. Structured writing guidance during the Spring semester is part of the bachelor's experience, and will help the student clarify and communicate their artistic practice in relation to context.
