Programs
Bachelor of Fine Arts (Drawing & Printmaking)
This program is taught by leading contemporary artists in immersive studio- and workshop-based environments, and it enables students to develop their own professional art practice. Students experiment with a wide range of approaches, including traditional drawing and print media as well as digital media, video, installation, performance and socially-engaged art. Students develop their material and conceptual methods in response to their interests, contextualised in relation to relevant historical and contemporary art practices and theory. Through their work, students address broader concerns, such as social and political issues, often drawing from other fields of knowledge. As genealogies of artistic practice, the fields of drawing and printmaking provide a foundation upon which students can invent the art practices of tomorrow.
Drawing and Printmaking staff and students dedicate their 2021 graduate show to the memory of our colleague and teacher Damiano Bertoli, who passed away in September this year. Damiano worked in our program for more than 20 years and touched the lives of hundreds of students during that time, including this year’s graduating cohort. His legacy will live on in their practices and those of our alumni.
