ANNOUCEMENT OF THE REFORM OF THE BACHELOR'S PROGRAM IN FINE ARTS
The Department of Visual Arts is currently undertaking a reform of the Bachelor’s program that aims to strengthen its pedagogical coherence, to improve the clarity of the curriculum, and to enhance its alignment with current visual art practices and the realities of professional environments. This restructuring, organized around four new options, affirms the rootedness of multiple practices while preserving the intermediality that characterizes the different fields of contemporary art. It also relies on a repositioning of the options, conceived in relation to types of production as well as spaces and modes of dissemination.
The new program will be effective as of the start of the 2026 academic year.
Further details about the new options will be available on the website as of mid-January 2026.
------------------------------------------------------------
The five options in the HEAD – Genève bachelor’s course in visual arts are run by teams of artists, theorists and curators from Switzerland and elsewhere. This innovative structure provides an approach that goes beyond the traditional divisions into media (painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, video, performance and new media), themes (bodies, spaces, images, interfaces, realities and reproductions) or methods (books, programmes, studios, projects, collective or individual initiatives). Its unusual groupings are based on the hybrid reality of contemporary artistic practice. The theoretical instruction provides a multivocal approach that blends readings across time, practices and disciplines of thought. The specialised classes, focusing on production, offer a high-quality interdisciplinary technical approach and a series of 1:1-scale artistic experiments.
