L’AQUILA – Come back the Open Day of the Academy of Fine Arts of L’Aquila. Next Monday 29th April from 9.30am to 5.30pm the institute will open its doors not only to Abruzzo high school students, but to the city, the territory and to those who want to come and discover a reality in which high artistic education is also synonymous with innovation in teaching.
An open day which is above all an openness to ideas and collaborations, a contribution of this Institution to the growth and cultural reconstruction of our territory. A day of orientation on training and professional choice to highlight the training offer available to those who wish to register but also to our members, in the knowledge that any choice must be supported by correct information on the opportunities and methods of access. Throughout the day, in fact, participants will be offered a broad panorama of orientation on active study paths. Through collective discussion and dialogue with the course coordinators, you will have the opportunity to illustrate the range of employment possibilities that each course offers. During the day, guests will be able to visit the premises of the Institute and the active laboratories, interact with the teachers and the students.
Responding to market demands and new expressive and technological boundaries, the Academy today issues first and second level Academic Diplomas, equivalent and equivalent to university degrees (as required by reform law no. 508/99 and subsequent additions) and two qualifying five-year restoration courses that allow students to gain experience directly in the field. Abaq participates in international projects and offers the possibility of spending study periods abroad thanks to the work of the Erasmus office. It also joins the Turandot project for Chinese students who intend to study in our country.
“On April 29th the Academy of Fine Arts of L’Aquila – declares Director Marco Brandizzi – will open its laboratories and classrooms to new generations who want to build their future on our specializations and skills. In the hope that this event will clarify our educational offer, I would like to welcome our guests from secondary schools, the parents and teachers who will accompany them. ‘Creativity is contagious. Pass it on wrote Albert Einstein; and the task of our institution is this: to convey to the new generations how to be creative through the many professionalisms that we offer in our study plans and which include the sectors of Visual Arts, Comics and Illustration, Graphics, Decoration, Painting, Sculpture, Teaching and Communication of Art, Photography, Fashion and Costume, Restoration, Scenography.”
The various study courses offered by the Academy of Fine Arts aim to train artistic skills and qualified professionals who, taking into account the pluralism of languages and technological innovations, are able to broaden their individual research. In this way the student, accompanied by the professionalism and heterogeneity of the teaching staff, will be able to develop his own expressive autonomy.
The teaching activity has always been accompanied by an intense series of collateral cultural activities such as exhibitions, internships and workshops, with artists of national and international importance. The constant openness to the territory allows for continuous collaboration with the various training institutions that animate the city, such as the University, the Conservatory and the GSSI Gran Sasso Science Institute. Furthermore, thanks to numerous agreements established with some of the most important cultural entities in the area, and beyond, such as the MAXXI Museum and MUNDA, students will be able to gain direct experience in the field, participating in prominent artistic events.
