Master of Arts in Curatorial Practice

Program Overview

MA Curatorial Practice combines theory, history and discussion of current practice with hands-on experience of curating and presenting work in public contexts. The programme explores curating as a contemporary practice and approaches a wide range of curatorial strategies from process-based and participatory models of exhibition making to the practice of curating as the basis for interdisciplinary research that connects art with other fields. The changing role of the curator extends concepts of the curatorial beyond traditional collection-based and exhibition venues to engage new audiences, situations and sites of encounter, ranging from art interventions in public space and projects in unexpected places to digital and web-based platforms. The programme provides space for students to engage the multiple perspectives that constitute understanding and experience of the curatorial within an expanded field of art, visual and material culture.

Our flexible and interdisciplinary approach provides opportunities for students from diverse backgrounds to develop roles within curatorial and professional practice, engage critical and creative thinking and address new challenges. Masters students in Curatorial Practice work alongside the studio-based programmes of study in Art and Design. Delivered by experts in the field alongside working curators, students benefit from well-established collaborative relationships with a range of public and private galleries, museums, collectors, heritage sites, public art projects alongside individual artists and curators. The programme is designed for students who wish to  broaden their knowledge and experience of gallery practice, participatory and pedagogical models of curating, as well as critical understanding of musicological disciplines and the changing nature of the museum. Practical experience in skills and competencies such as understanding governance, proposal writing, contracts and leadership are embedded in the course.
