Institut des hautes études en arts plastiques (IHEAP)

Call for Applications 2014
Session X, 2014-2016

Deadline for the submission of applications: June 1st, 2014

In 1985, the City of Paris gave Pontus Hulten the task of creating a graduate school for research in contemporary art. Its antecendents were to be the Weimer Bauhaus School and Black Mountain College in the U.S., and it was meant to function as an alternative to Paris’s École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts.

IHEAP is open to all those who have an interest in singular and extreme practices which currently and sporadically appear in the art world and elsewhere. IHEAP is for those who want to change their artistic practice or professional activity, for those who after several years of art school want to break free of alienated learning, who expect more from a school than a framework for artistic production, for those who reject art as it is commonly practiced, and finally for those who wish to work on essential issues in intimate and experimental conditions.

The course of study is completed in two years. The first year is composed of sessions work that mix practice and theorie. The second year is dedicated to the creation of an activity report.

IHEAP does not discriminate by age.

No specific diploma is required to apply.

Study at IHEAP is equivalent to a post-graduate degree. The application fee is 75 euros. Tuition is 2990 euros for two years studies.

The submission of an application is an online process, according to a simplified procedure via a registration form: http://iheap.fr/en/candidature/
