The Institute of Studies in Art and
Art Education offers a multifaceted study programme that strongly links artistic practice with artistic and cultural-scientific,
design theoretical, architecture theoretical, and didactic reflection. It thereby provides professionalisation for occupations
at the intersection of art and education. The institute consists of artistic and cultural science departments with a broad
spectrum of didactic courses. The focus of knowledge production is placed upon the advancement of the arts and visual cultures
as well as on the creative processes in design and architecture. On the other hand, the institute also concentrates on research
areas and discursive practices in human, artistic, design, architectural and cultural sciences.
It is of great significance
to the institute to create an awareness of problems in the social and historical dimensions of art and aesthetics and to impart
a critical understanding of functions and the fundamental connections between art, cultural theory and society.
