In addition to its graduate courses, the ENSBA offers a one-year,
Postgraduate programme with an international orientation, for a small
group of student-researchers who have acquired at least a DNSEP or a
Master’s degree.

In 1999, ENSBA, convinced that the singularity of an art school depends,
among other things, on its freedom to reinvent itself and fully assume its
role of transmission, decided to set up a postgraduate course program for
a selected group of five young artists from different geographical
backgrounds, already actively engaged in an art practice. During this
yearlong program they are invited to pursue their work and will be given
full access to the school’s facilities and studios. The development of
individual work will be nourished through constant critical interaction,
the creation of a collective project and opportunities for travel.

It is an articulation of elements that are too often kept separate:
education and professionalism, the protected environment of the school and
exposure to the world. The postgraduate program offers and involves a
social experience based on openness to the exterior, which hopefully
creates a certain form of destabilization.
Foreign travel, within and outside of Europe, will lead the group to meet
many artists and art professionals, to analyze many exhibitions and
artistic events, and observe, at the scale of a city, the conditions,
needs and that which fuels an artistic scene.

The Postgraduate programme of the Ecole Nationale Superieure des
Beaux-Arts, Lyon is accessible to international candidates.
All visual arts practices are welcome, including but not limited to
painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, installation, video, sound,
performance...
