The [Inter]action option explores the relationship between art and action, both from a concrete and a theoretical perspective. Here we seek to develop artistic work whose modus operandi is specific, because the form of the work is set in the here and now, in it’s making of. The Art/ Action option trans-cends disciplines, media and categories of representation (even though performance is perhaps its closest definition), paving the way for research and development focusing on creativity in action.

Sculpture
Objects
Installations

The Construction option offers a cross-disciplinary approach to sculpture, installation and space viewed in their broader context: the production of objects, assemblage, systems, media, public art, environments and sound. The option adopts a dual approach that closely integrates the place of the workshop within the school with the development of events outside its walls— in public spaces or in the context of international exhibitions—and offers a formal and conceptual initiation that seeks to align the student’s project and its gradual formalization with the cultural, social and political dimension of mutual acceptance, the collective and the city.

Photography
Video
Medias

The Information/Fiction option offers artistic education in photography and video. We favour a cross-disciplinary approach by exhorting students to experiment freely with both media alternately or simultaneously, and consider them as complementary.
We also encourage students to explore the links between photography and video and other art forms such as cinema, installation, music, performance and literature.
In a society saturated with images, artists cannot overlook the significance of in-depth reflection and must express a specific relationship with their cultural and social environment. This teaching programme specifically focuses on this relationship, whether through the lens of fiction or autofiction, the production of documents or the development of archives, anthropological investigation or diversion.
In a world that is constantly recording itself and contemplating itself in the process (Instagram, Facebook, etc.), images are becoming less of a record of an event or a trace of a memory and more of a tradable item. This is undoubtedly a major shift in the history of representation, implying new challenges for artists in terms of the production, economy and distribution of images.

Painting
Drawing
Installation

Using the specific tools of painting, drawing and installation, how can we think outside the framework of a blank canvas or sheet of drawing paper? Through the rationale of the workshop, this option engages with day-to-day creativity and issues of a theoretical nature. It offers a broad understanding of art and images viewed in their cultural, social and political context. Combining various other media and techniques—from publishing to the moving image and performance—this option leaves students’ suggestions open, rather than consigning them to a particular current or trend. Here, on the contrary, professors help to breathe life into evolving projects, responding in real time to the needs of evolving independent thought.
