Overview
The Art Business and Fine Art program from Claremont Graduate University (CGU) merges studio practice from CGU’s art program with coursework in the business, markets, history and theory of art, as well as core courses in finance, accounting, law, and marketing. Students maintain an art practice while learning broadly transferable business and management principles and techniques.
Features
- In contrast to a conventional art degree such as an MFA, candidates for this degree pursue an entrepreneurship sequence.
- Understanding the culture of the studio, and the kind of work, planning, and management required to engage in ambitious artistic projects, either at large scale or over long periods of time, is more necessary today than at any time before.
