Fine Art

Highly regarded by the Australian arts industry and internationally recognised, Monash Fine Art is a dynamic and culturally diverse community that encourages freedom of expression. Fine Art is a studio-based degree with a strong focus on contemporary fine art. You develop and engage your ideas in tandem with learning new skills, techniques, materials and mediums. At Monash the studio is a shared space for experimentation, collaboration and learning. With purpose built facilities, Monash Fine Art provides emerging artists with resources, professional practice, expert industry knowledge and a dynamic artist community.

This is a prestigious program in the discipline and practice of fine art for high achieving students, who undertake coursework, research and practical training with a focus on fine art studio, curation, or art history and theory. Carrying out an independent research project in their selected area of specialisation, our graduates are equipped for a successful arts career or pathway to higher level research in fine art.

Our Bachelor of Art History and Curating equips students with the skills to succeed in a creative and influential career as a curator, researcher, or writer. Throughout their studies they have worked closely with the nationally significant Monash University Museum of Art (MUMA), and learnt about the history of art from foremost scholars and art writers. Our graduates have acquired skills in the theory and practice of curating, and developed a broad base of knowledge that sets them up for a career in Australia or abroad.
