Programme overview

Distinctive features of a study programme:

The sole University-level MA program in Photography in the Baltic states is delivered by a faculty comprising educators with diverse specializations and internationally recognized artists offering personalized mentorship. Situating photography within a broad socio-cultural framework amidst rapidly evolving technological landscapes, the Master of Photography program aims to furnish students with both theoretical understanding and practical competencies relevant to creative and professional milieus. Emphasizing the expansion of applied research in contemporary photography, the program underscores its intersections with the digital realm, networked environments, innovative forms of book production, diverse media for image dissemination, and interactive exhibition design encompassing moving images.
This interdisciplinary program intertwines theoretical frameworks with practical applications, encompassing contemporary discourses, Anthropocene critique, theoretical and creative writing, book publishing, curatorial practices, and critical theories of photography. Such integration enables students to conceive and actualize original concepts, leveraging their artistic acumen, international networks, critical thinking faculties, and adeptness in creative presentation. Equipped with these skills, graduates are poised to autonomously engage in artistic endeavors, initiate publishing ventures, curate exhibitions, and undertake scholarly research within the realm of photography.
Cultivating advanced critical thinking capacities and adeptness in creative presentation further enables graduates to position their artistic practice within the broader international art landscape, thus fostering a forward-looking professional trajectory. By contextualizing photography studies within the contemporary art milieu, the program equips students with the acumen to navigate the exigencies of the art market, discern its imperatives, and effectively respond to evolving demands.
