The
annual exhibition of new work by eighteen students in the first year of
the Master of Fine Art comprises a great variety of works across a wide
range of media including painting, drawing, sculpture, video,
performance and installation.
The
MFA programme has built an international reputation over the past
twenty years as one of the UK's leading postgraduate fine art
programmes. The MFA is a two-year, multidisciplinary programme: both of
these fundamental facts are significant. A two-year programme of study
offers students an extraordinary opportunity to analyse their studio
practice in depth, and to modify, develop and secure it accordingly. The
multidisciplinary context also ensures that such developments are
protected against narrowly defined ambitions. MFA students learn from,
and contribute to, the delivery of the programme curriculum, the
experiences of their peers, and the wider art community based within the
city of Glasgow. Within this situation a premium is placed upon
independence, originality, initiative and enterprise. The MFA aims to
produce graduates who are equipped for a career in the professional art
world: informed, confident, independent and ambitious. MFA students are
drawn from all corners of the world, and the international dimension of
the programme, as demonstrated by the list of names above, is seen as
one of its particular strengths.
