DOGtime advanced years

Fine Arts

Students of DOGtime’s Fine Arts programme learn how to work with various interpretations of a practical, theoretical and technical reality of today. During the course students' work is shown and discussed within the group. Adding to this there are regular meetings between student and teacher in which work is discussed individually. Later in the course programme students work on individual projects which have to culminate in a public presentation and a documentation of the student's progress. In the fifth and last year students write a thesis. In this thesis the student has to reflect on art theory, perform research and state their position as an (upcoming) artist.

Interaction Design-Unstable Media (ID-UM)

DOGtime course ID-UM started in 2005 and offers new perspectives on art and concept development, using the tools of interaction design and unstable media. The course challenges students to investigate art and design applications in public domains and private objects. Students learn how to operate and respond to commercial and artistic strategies. In the fifth and last year students have to write a thesis. In this thesis the student has to reflect on art theory, perform research and state their position as an (upcoming) interaction design-unstable media designer.

Language

All classes in DOGtime can be bi-lingual (Dutch and English). Most students speak both Dutch and at least one other language. In the course we recommend learning Dutch as soon as possible as it is in the student's interest to fully integrate in the DOGtime programme.

Gerrit Rietveld Academie offers a Dutch language course for non-Dutch speakers.
