American University's MFA in Studio Art, while rooted in painting traditions, embraces diverse disciplines and equips artists to situate their work within both historical and modern contexts.
Through examining cultural, theoretical, and technical methods essential to today's dynamic art landscape, the program focuses on grasping varied viewpoints and artists' positions within them. It also highlights the importance of creative processes, visual representation, and personal identity—encompassing gender, race, socioeconomic status, and sexual orientation—key considerations in contemporary artistic practice.
