TStudy at ACT is most appropriate for artists who have developed an artistic practice of sufficient depth that they are likely to benefit from a graduate program. The emphasis is less on specific media (although support is provided for production in many) than on ideas. It is intended to assist artist-thinkers–who produce art and explore ideas through that art–in developing their practice and their ideas. Developing the written thesis is just as core to the program as producing other work, and critiques in ACT Studio are as likely to examine students’ ideas and the historical precedents to their work as the aesthetics of the piece being viewed, listened to, or otherwise interacted with.
