Overview

Through a strong focus on your individual studio practice you will engage in the most significant current debates on painting and the histories from which they emerge. The Painting programme from Manchester Metropolitan University will encourage you to question the boundaries of your practice, embracing current ideas of ‘expanded painting’ and painting being ‘beyond self’ alongside questions posed within the more typical parameters of the picture plane and modes of representation.
