CALL FOR APPLICATIONS:
MFA in Art Criticism & Writing
At the School of Visual Arts in New York City
209 East 23rd Street/ New York, NY 10010-3994.

The Art Criticism & Writing graduate program at the School of Visual Arts
offers a two-year course of study leading to an MFA degree. SVA is one of
the nationâs leading independent colleges of art and design, located in
the heart of Manhattan, just blocks from the Chelsea gallery district.
For students who want to improve their writing and advance their knowledge
of contemporary art, theory, and history, this program offers specialized
instruction from practitioner-teachers led by the Chair of the program,
David Levi Strauss. Current faculty include Thyrza Nichols Goodeve, Robert
Hullot-Kentor, Raphael Rubinstein, Tom Huhn, Ken Johnson, Suzanne Anker,
Susan Bee, Bill Beckley, Roger Denson, and Jeffrey Kastner. The core
faculty is joined by visiting critics and scholars who come into the
program in various capacities on a frequent basis. Publisher of the
Brooklyn Rail Phong Bui, Art in America senior editor Nancy Princenthal,
and poet and essayist Ann Lauterbach all visited our Thesis Seminar this
Spring, and visiting lecturers this Fall 2008 will include Linda Nochlin,
Bill Berkson, Carol Becker, W.J.T. Mitchell, and Leo Steinberg.
The sixty-credit program offers foundation courses in the bases of
criticism and the fundamentals of critical writing, leading to the
completion of the thesis in the final term. The small class size allows a
great deal of one-on-one time with the faculty and extensive dialogue with
other students. The focus in writing is on the essay as form, as well as
on shorter forms of review, through our criticism blog Degree Critical.
New electives offered this Fall include âThe Art of the Interviewâ by
Thyrza Goodeve, âArt Magazinesâ by Jeffrey Kastner, and âMedia
Critique and Aesthetics: Theodor Adorno on Television, Photography, Film,
Radio, and Musicâ by Robert Hullot-Kentor.
An underlying principle of this program from its inception has been that
the image should begin to occupy a place in the understanding of life
comparable to that occupied by the humanities and sciences. To that end,
we spend a good deal of time studying the history of images and how they
currently operate in the world.
Applications for the Fall 2008 term will be accepted until June 1, 2008.
Scholarship packages are available on a competitive basis.
The Chair is available through the Spring to meet with interested
candidates to discuss the program and its philosophy. To arrange an
interview, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or call (212) 492-2408.
