2–year Master's degree
Low residency
Start September
This two-year flagship programme is designed to develop advanced practical and theoretical skills, and is aimed at graduates, practising artists, and working professionals. Individual or group project work is research-driven and process-based, and the methods of study bridge the apparent divide between analogue and digital media.
The programme combines an understanding of your own work within the wider intellectual and social context, self-managed studio practice, and experiential learning based on practical research, internship or residency; all supported by a well-established and well-regarded core faculty team.
The experiential approach to learning is enhanced by the newly introduced Advanced Practice module. Students complete an internship, research project, university-based project or residency, enabling the development of solutions to real-world problems, accelerating personal and professional knowledge, skills, behaviours and the opportunity to increase professional connections.
Students of MA Fine Art learn advanced practical and theoretical skills in a dedicated studio space at PCU's Pragovka Campus. Studio practice, in combination with workshops, allows to students to fully explore and develop their artistic careers.

Students can expect 8-9 hours of class time a week, plus additional workshops & guest lectures. Further independent learning and group work of around 16-17 hours per week is expected.
Through the lens of a sailor, is a visual representation of Adrian's time working at sea as a young man. Memories from his past life were not recorded on camera so instead he has bought these moments to life on canvas. Now an artist and musician living in Prague, Adrian has had a very varied life and has been involved in the creative professions as an art director and creative director, landscape designer, and award-winning musician.
An installation questioning the construct of identity. Finding conceptions and distortions of human construction. I believe that our background, our past, has the possibility of questioning our present. What we once were interrogates who we are today.
“The most beautiful and complex artwork we can make is our identity” - Grayson Perry
The work of the graduates mixes an inclination towards the classical form with a speculative, visionary way of thinking. This fusion is further exacerbated by the current societal changes to which the artists decided to express themselves in various ways and to design new perspectives through personal experience.
An unspoken time pressure and acceleration, a phenomenon due to today's philosophical considerations, runs through the exhibition. This acceleration is reflected not only in digital communication and technological progress, but also in the perception of our own identity.
In March, students opened their Pragovka studios to the general public. Visitors were able to visit the art space, speak with final year students and learn about the final projects being developed for graduation. Open Studios are held twice a year, usually in November and March.
