Transdisciplinary curriculum Bachelors - Masters

The teaching of the erg is differentiated by the interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary approach, guaranteed by the intersection of students and professors from different disciplines: video, painting, photography, sculpture, drawing, installation-performance, digital arts, typography, graphic design, digital design, illustration, comics, animation, in multidisciplinary workshops that bring them together in Bachelors: art, narration and media. And through the 3 programmes offered in the Master's programme: Art practice, critical tools (Art and simultaneous contexts), Narratives and experimentation (Speculative narration), Politics and graphic experimentation. Students also have the opportunity to confront themselves with other practices in the internships carried out internally, during workshops proposed by the teachers with external guests and open to several orientations or during the use of different transversal places (video editing room, super 8 lab, sound room, print-lab, etc.).

orientations Bachelors & Masters

The student chooses an orientation from among the 13 proposed, each associated with a pole. The chosen orientation defines the title of the academic degree sanctioning the successful completion of the cycle.

Clusters and Multidisciplary workshops

The cluster is a meeting point, a point of convergence between several orientations. It is a place of synergy and transversality of knowledge and practices. There are 3 clusters: Art, Media and Narration.

The Art cluster

• Digital arts / Coding
• Installation - Performance
• Drawing
• Painting
• Photography
• Sculpture
• Videography

The Media cluster

• Digital Graphic Design
• Graphic Design
• Typography

The Narration cluster

• Animated Film
• Illustration - Comics
• Photography
• Videography

Internal Internship

From the second year of Bachelors, students must choose an Internal Internship - To be chosen from all the orientations (different from the first choice), or between Serigraphy, Woodcut, Linocut and Lithograhy and Model drawing classes-

Multidisciplinary Workshops

Theory and practice

Theoretical courses are an essential component of the curriculum, and are fully complementary to the artistic workshops. They allow a further exploration of methodologies, of personal or collective propositions, as well as spaces of mediation and forms, apprehended in their historical and critical perspectives.

Technical courses

The spaces for production and action are diversifying. The first years are the time for maximum experimentation with these spaces. Experimenting with what a workshop is: a computer, a table, a stage, a kitchen. Not only are the classes multidisciplinary workshops, but the school itself can also become so: auditoriums, specific classrooms, cafeterias, exhibition spaces. The plastic realisation of ideas, projects, commissions, acts of communication is a process that happens, that operates in its very realisation. It is necessary to go through this process: to imagine, to do, to see, to say. It is necessary to accompany the students' risk of exploring the areas outside of all kinds of manuals. In order to be able to ask the question of the conditions of production, it is a question of opening up and understanding the tools they have in their hands: software, pigments, typography, films, voices, etc. Is the form determined by history, by computer companies, by technical limits, by economic means, by the workplace?
