Committed to broadening the understanding of painting

Join an internationally renowned studio-based Master’s programme with a reputation for producing artists working at the forefront of the discipline.

Our innovative teaching approach fosters creative, self-reflective and critical artists. We cultivate these values through shared practices, research, and a collaborative culture engaging with current global issues. You’ll embrace painting’s rich material and conceptual history and its potential in the 21st century.

You’ll have opportunities to understand and advance your studio practice through individual tutorials and group critiques, online group seminars, workshops, artist talks and presentations. You'll hone your ability to reflect critically on your studio work, informed by the perspectives of your peers, faculty, and invited contributors.

Our teaching staff comprises accomplished artists of international standing who work across a diverse range of media. We’ll support you in finding the right technical skills needed to communicate your ideas. We respect technical skills while emphasising clear concepts and images.

We are committed to supporting your artistic and professional practice, enabling you to forge a sustainable and engaged career in the creative economy.

Applications for the September 2024 intake are now open.

  • Language Test: IELTS 6.5 (minimum)
  • Other: Candidates are selected entirely on merit and applications are welcomed from all over the world. The selection process will consider creativity, imagination and innovation as demonstrated in your portfolio, as well as your potential to benefit from the programme and to achieve high MA standards overall. The application procedure focuses on searching out those candidates that are highly motivated, independent and demonstrate they have the critical skills necessary to develop and further their existing ideas. In short, those artists that – given the opportunity to join the Painting programme – would utilise their time with us to the full, and have the generosity to support their fellow students. We welcome candidates from all kinds of backgrounds, but generally having completed a BA degree. In recent years, people have come from fine art, printmaking, painting, sculpture, photo media, conservation, illustration, design, textiles, architecture, art history and interactive arts courses. While many students enter the course after years of independent work, we also accept students directly from undergraduate courses. Ultimately, we want to attract to the course those artists that want to work in a supportive environment and have the drive and ambition to realise the full potential of their studio practice, in turn energising their peer group.
