About Yale School of Art
Yale School of Art provides students with intellectually informed, hands-on instruction in the practice of an array of visual arts media within the context of a liberal arts university. As a part of the first institution of higher learning to successfully integrate a studio-based education into such a broad pedagogical framework, the Yale School of Art has a long and distinguished history of training artists of the highest caliber. A full-time faculty of working artists in conjunction with a diverse cross-section of accomplished visiting artists collaborate to design a program and foster an environment where the unique talents and perspectives of individual students can emerge and flourish. The school currently offers graduate degrees and undergraduate majors in the areas of graphic design, painting/printmaking, photography, and sculpture.
Participating Students: Ethan Shim, Eunice Kiang, Xavier Ruiz, Samantha Trimboli, Michael Gancz, Serengeti Cox-Rodriguez, Sarah Saltzman, Maya Perry, Pap Souleye Fall, Jessica Flamming
About MFA Photography, Video and Related Media at SVA
Founded in 1988, the MFA Photography, Video and Related Media program at the School of Visual Arts nurtures interdisciplinary activity, multimedia integration and provides ever-expanding opportunities for lens-based students; we continually push the boundaries of the techniques, theory, and practice of the developing technologies. Our students are encouraged to rethink their own assumptions and engage an enlightened audience, not only visually but also contextually. We provide the critical thinking and visual literacy necessary for students to expand their ideas and make notable contributions to culture. The department’s celebrated faculty actively engages students in contemporary and responsible creative initiatives, including experimental, narrative and documentary video; installation and conceptual art; and tableau and real-world-witness photography. For over thirty years, the department has produced remarkable graduates who have flourished as exhibiting artists, journalists, curators, scholars, and teachers.
Participating Students: Fan Yu, Daisy Tang, Jingyi Gao, Wenying Zhang, Xiaoran Xu, Guanyu Chen, Sunhong Park, Huiyu Wang, Jun Ge, Xuemeng Zhang, Phoelix (Yiwen Gao) and Song Lu (15 sec only)
