The <b>HES-SO Master’s in Visual Arts</b> is jointly run by the three Swiss French speaking schools: HEAD – Geneva, ECAL – Lausanne and ECAV – Sierre.<br>
<br>
<b>HEAD – Geneva</b>, traditionally the largest visual arts school in Switzerland, offers three of the five HES-SO Master’s in Visual Arts majors.<br>
<br>
<b>WORK.MASTER CONTEMPORARY ARTISTIC PRACTICES<br>
TRANS– ART EDUCATION<br>
CCC CRITICAL CURATORIAL CYBERMEDIA</b><br>
<br>
These various programmes create bridges though each one is designed as a highly individualised trans-disciplinary study platform defined by the work and projects of each artist or research group. Thus each orientation encourages the maturation of a personal work or a collective project already geared to the professional art scene and social reality.<br>
<br>
HEAD – Geneva is also offering two postgraduate programmes <b>ALPes</b> (Art, Location, Landscape, Sound space) and <b>REAL</b> (Realisation – Ceramic & Polymers). More information:<a href=" http://head.hesge.ch/spip.php?rubrique235"> http://head.hesge.ch/spip.php?rubrique235</a><br>
<br>
<br>
<b>WORK.MASTER CONTEMPORARY ARTISTIC PRACTICES</b><br>
4 full-time semesters – 120 ECTS credits<br>
<a href="

http://head.hesge.ch/spip.php?rubrique236&lang=en</a><br>
<br>
WORK.MASTER is structured around the embodiment of a personal project on a 1:1 scale. <br>
It has its place on the Geneva art scene; a scene broadly filled with cross-cutting concerns and internationally open.<br>
<br>
WORK.MASTER’s intends to contribute to the development of new artistic practices within the expanded field of visual culture, and to train artists able to adapt to new situations and wanting to respond to today’s challenges while being able to face a demanding international context.<br>
<br>
The programme time is balanced between personal research reflexion and group brainstorming. The work pace alternates between workshop research and experimentation, internal courses, meetings with external partners (artistes, theorists et curators, agents and politicians, cultural institutions), visits and trips abroad as well as practical encounters such as personal exhibits and group <br>
project presentations.<br>
<br>
The courses are mainly given in French<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>TRANS– ART EDUCATION</b><br>
4 full-time semesters – 120 ECTS credits<br>
<a href="

http://head.hesge.ch/spip.php?rubrique237&lang=en</a><br>
<br>
The programme is based on the student’s artistic experience. Under the leadership of art and theory specialists, this mental exercise aims at translating, transcribing and transferring one’s own artistic experience and to share or propose it to others. In fact, it is to answer the question: “How, on the basis of my own work and my relation to creation, can I guide children or adults and establish teaching and workshops where they can practice creation and find their own forms of expression?”<br>
<br>
Audience: All students who, on the basis of their basic artistic principles, wish to explore the broadest fields of artistic and cultural transmission: editing, interactions with the population, art and/or heritage mediation workshops in an associative or institutional environment. The TRANS programme also opens the doors to teaching.<br>
<br>
The courses are mainly given in French<br>
<br>
