Sint Lucas Antwerp offers academic bachelor<br />
and masters degrees in graphic design, fine arts<br />
and jewellery design/goldsmithing. Our art and<br />
design program offers each individual student the<br />
guidance and resources to discover their own voice<br />
and to cultivate the intellectual, conceptual and<br />
critical skills to successfully launch their careers<br />
as professional artists. The aim of the teaching<br />
staff on the various programs (all are practising<br />
artists, designers, curators, critics and writers) is to help the students to develop<br />
the necessary self-motivation and confidence in their work and to help them<br />
explore different media.<br />
We are specifically committed to experimentation and to<br />
interdisciplinary thinking and students are motivated to push the boundaries<br />
of their work and to develop an awareness of concepts and attitudes outside<br />
their own discipline. Examples of specific interdisciplinary research projects<br />
are projects like ‘Integrated’ and the ‘Experimental Media Group’. ‘Integrated’<br />
focuses on the relationship between the graphic designer, the art world and<br />
society at large and presents its findings and results in a biennial international<br />
conference and event. The St Lucas Experimental Media Group, another<br />
multimedia research project, developed in 2007 ‘Nodebox’, an innovative,<br />
open-source software application that allows artists, programmers and graphic<br />
designers to create artificial creativity. Currently, the Experimental Media Group<br />
is working on spin-off projects like ‘Gravital’ and ‘City In A Bottle’.<br />
For particularly talented artists and designers who would like to go<br />
further in the field of research, St Lucas Antwerp several possibilities: there is<br />
an unique ‘Master after Master’ degree course which offers students the space<br />
to develop additional insights and skills that stimulate the personal artistic<br />
development through an individual and curriculum. In addition, in association<br />
with the University of Antwerp we offer artists the opportunity to achieve an<br />
individual Phd in the Arts degree.<br />
