Academy of Fine Arts in Prague

Art in Context MFA program

deadline: March 31, 2022

Art in Context is an entirely new accredited 
small-scale international MFA program aimed at 
deepening students' skills & collaborative 
competencies in art practices across various 
visual arts media and theory. The Art in Context 
curriculum combines continuous studio and 
post-studio practice with collective seminars, 
projects and individual instruction by a dynamic, 
inclusive and internationally renowned team of 
artists, performers, theorists and thinkers. The 
thematic frameworks are built on the basis of 
mutual exchange between students and instructors. 
Two years of intense international learning 
culminate with a final third year focused around 
the creation of a diploma work and its public 
presentation.

Along with studio work, the Art in Context 
program offers courses in artistic research and 
writing, plus lectures in art history and 
critical theory. Our students are provided access 
to all the artistic and scientific departments 
and workshops at the oldest art school in the 
Czech Republic and benefit from exchanges with a 
unique and diverse community of students, alumni, 
artists, curators and art professionals from the 
Academy of Fine Arts in Prague. Studio spaces are 
situated in a charming heritage-protected Art 
Nouveau building (the ·aloun Studio) in the heart 
of the cosmopolitan city of Prague.

The Academy of Fine Arts in Prague is an 
autonomous state university constituted on the 
principles of transparency, the promotion of 
democratic standards, diversity, inclusion, and 
equity, and is committed to following sustainable 
practices.
