The MA Art in Public course has evolved from current complex concerns for the role of art / artists in a changing society. It is based in Belfast (York St. Campus), where engaged art practices have been developed in various “contested spaces” for many years. The programme seeks to develop testing modes of working that are dialogic, participatory, interventionist or collaborative in intention and structure. Throughout the programme students will work with formal / informal external partners and be expected to develop self initiated, innovative practice based approaches.
