Overview

This location, like nowhere else, provides the student access to the changing ideas and forms of contemporary art and is crucial to the achievement of our educational goal: to develop professional artists capable of continued growth once they leave the relatively structured university environment.

The Studio Art program at The City University of New York offers six concentrations:

Clay and Casting
Combined Media (Installation, Performance and Video)
Painting
Photography
Sculpture
Work on Paper, Drawing, Printmaking

Learning outcomes

The program is designed to offer broad training for artists in the development of critical and analytical visual thinking as it relates to their work. Over the course of three years, students work closely with faculty tutors to develop their own art individual work. Student work is then examined and tested in the context of contemporary practice during group critique, seminars and one-on-one visits with well-known artists, critics and curators.

Job Opportunities

Within the Art and Art History Department and Hunter Galleries, there are opportunities for hourly paid work available to students. Gallery attendants, studio monitors and studio maintenance workers are hired each semester as needed. Students who are interested in these and other possibilities should inquire at the Leubsdorf Gallery office, the Art Department office and at the MFA Building office.
