The HES-SO Master’s in Visual Arts is jointly run by the three Swiss
French speaking schools: HEAD – Geneva, ECAL – Lausanne and ECAV –
Sierre.

HEAD – Geneva, traditionally the largest visual arts school in
Switzerland, offers three of the five HES-SO Master’s in Visual Arts
majors.

WORK.MASTER CONTEMPORARY ARTISTIC PRACTICES
TRANS– ART EDUCATION
CCC CRITICAL CURATORIAL CYBERMEDIA

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.

HEAD – Geneva is also offering two postgraduate programmes ALPes (Art,
Location, Landscape, Sound space) and REAL (Realisation – Ceramic &
Polymers). More information: http://head.hesge.ch/spip.php?rubrique235


WORK.MASTER CONTEMPORARY ARTISTIC PRACTICES
4 full-time semesters – 120 ECTS credits
http://head.hesge.ch/spip.php?rubrique236&lang=en

WORK.MASTER is structured around the embodiment of a personal project on a
1:1 scale.
It has its place on the Geneva art scene; a scene broadly filled with
cross-cutting concerns and internationally open.

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.

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
project presentations.

The courses are mainly given in French


TRANS– ART EDUCATION
4 full-time semesters – 120 ECTS credits
http://head.hesge.ch/spip.php?rubrique237&lang=en

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?”

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.

The courses are mainly given in French
