3rd year ART

During the 3^rd year ART, the student is progressively encouraged to move on from the thematic studies to enable their own personal research to emerge and develop.

Objectives

Centred around interactive study, the 3^rd year ART aims to:

• enable the student to identify, distinguish and use the notions that underpin and surround his intentions as an artist;
• bring the student to the invention of their own work methodology by liaising with the teachers who are accompanying them in the development of both their ability to develop a critical analysis and to widen their field of artistic experimentation and theoretical investigation. 

Course programme

The course proposed during the 3^rd year ART are articulated around three academic axes:

• theory classes;
• the ARC (Ateliers de Recherche et de Création);
• learning to be autonomous thanks to the Show-off. The Show-off enables the student to present his experimentations installed in a space specifically devoted to showing art work, to a group of teachers.

The semestrial evaluation validates:

• full involvement in the courses run;
• autonomous work methods;
• regular dialogue with the teachers throughout the semester;
• the oral presentation of a show of a selection of art work produced.

Admissibility to the (DNAP) diploma exams is decided during this evaluation.
