The Charlottenborg School of Sculpture is one of four study programs at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts.
School of Sculpture Charlottenborg
The teaching at the school aims to strengthen your professional knowledge, methodological skills and professional competence in the visual arts with a special focus on sculpture and spatial practices.
Through both practical work in the studio and theoretical courses, you will develop your own artistic practice, methodology and professionalism so that you can work as a professional visual artist, maintain an independent practice and solve both artistic and communicative tasks.
The master's program is a practice-based education based on artistic development work, research and critical reflection.
The main purpose of the program is to enable you to work professionally in the field of visual arts, and it also qualifies you for possible PhD studies in visual arts.
The teaching
Before the start of the semester, the school's professor makes a semester plan for the coming semester's teaching, which may include e.g. individual supervision, joint critiques, seminars, workshops, field trips, guest lectures, department assemblies and study trips. The teaching is organized by the professor, but can also be planned in collaboration between student and professor.
The teaching is based on your own artistic practice as a student. Through dialog and sparring with professors, lecturers, guest teachers and fellow students, you will develop both your artistic language and your ability to work independently, methodically and critically.
Central to the program is your own work in the studio and in the Academy's workshops and laboratories.
