Summary
UWE Bristol's MA Fine Art is ideally placed if you're looking to develop your fine art practice at a professional level amongst a diverse and supportive community of creative arts practitioners.
Why study MA Fine Art? You'll study our innovative curriculum alongside a committed group of peers, designed to offer critical, collaborative, and personal approaches to fine art practice in today's cultural contexts. There is no emphasis on one type of work, you might explore painting, installation, performance, sculpture, moving image or drawing, reflecting contemporary practice through experimentation.
On our MA Fine Art course, you'll gain insights into contemporary arts practice and debates, taught by recognised experts. Combined with the extensive creative resources across our City Campus, you'll be equipped to work professionally and engage with regional, national and international arts communities.
Whether you're a recent arts graduate or an established professional, this course supports you to push your practice to the next level.
The interdisciplinary aspect of the course, where at key times in the year MA Fine Art students come together with Curating, Photography and Printmaking students, is a dynamic opportunity to extend your practice and networks across discipline areas.
Why UWE Bristol? You'll be perfectly placed studying in Bristol, a socially and politically progressive city, and one of the UK's most creatively influential. Here you'll discover a range of galleries, artists' groups and studios plus art projects involving students and graduates.
MA Fine Art is based at Arnolfini on the historic harbourside. Situated above this international contemporary arts centre, you're placed at the heart of Bristol's creative scene and near UWE Bristol's City Campus, including our Fine Art Studios at Spike Island. Here you'll develop your skills alongside like-minded creative talent.
Where can it take me? You'll graduate with a recognised qualification and a range of career options. The course supports your personal practice, leading to roles as an artist, technician, or in galleries and museums. Many students also go into film, education, or the wider creative industries. Further study, for example, a PhD pathway within our research centres, is another option to consider.
