œuvres, images and signs, adopting a decidedly critical and practical perspective.

With no preordained result, it forms a milieu where students can create

as many new forms as original trades in the fields of art and design. Training and research activities are closely tied

to creation and practice and characterized by protocols and modes of legitimization that are those of the worlds of art and design.

An Education of Excellence at the Heart

of the Professional World

Whether it carries the name

“school of fine arts”,

“art school” or “school of art and design”, the higher school of art is a space in direct contact with the art world, and the different professionals

operating in the domains of contemporary creation.

It provides the means for creation through a pedagogy of the project, encouraging and initiating situations of experimentation,

teaching students to analyze

œuvres, images and signs, adopting a decidedly critical and practical perspective.

With no preordained result, it forms a milieu where students can create as many new forms as original trades in the fields of art and design. Training and research activities are closely tied

to creation and practice and

Entry Competitions and Equivalence Panels

Entry to the first year in a higher school of art is made through an entry competition. Students are chosen following an examination open to all secondary level students having successfully passed the Baccalauréat (or an equivalent qualification in the case of foreign students). Exceptions can be made for students without a Baccalauréat. The admission exam is organized in two phases:

 a first phase composed of the following three elements: artistic practice, general culture, foreign language skills;

 a second, decisive phase made up of an interview with an admissions panel based on the candidates artistic portfolio.

The organization of the competition — and the modalities of admission — are decided by each school. Admissions mid-curriculum are made through internal equivalence panels in each establishment. The admissions commission receives students who have already completed one or more years of study in a higher art school under the responsibility of the Minister for Culture. The Commission for equivalences is open to French students registered in a curriculum other than that of a higher art school and for foreign students who have already begun their studies in a country other than France. For foreign applicants, the portfolio must be translated into French and certified.

The Architecture of Studies and Qualifications

There are in France 46 higher schools of art under the pedagogical supervision of the Ministry for Culture and Communication, located on 59 sites all over the country.

In most of these schools, national and territorial, studies are composed in the following manner:

 a first cycle leading to a national qualification, Diplôme National d’Art National Diploma in Art (DNA), of a “Licence” level (semesters 1 to 6) made up of a general first year and two years in one of the following three options: art, design or communication;

 a second cycle leading to a national qualification, the Diplôme National Supérieur d’Expression Plastique / National Higher Degree in Visual Expression (DNSEP), in art, design or communication, awarding the grade of Master (semesters 7 to 10).

 Some schools offer third cycles or postgraduate courses, that may, or may not, lead to school qualifications, and university 3^rd cycles (PhD in collaboration with partner universities) leading in turn to a Doctoral degree.

Five schools in the network award specific establishment certificates: the three parisian national higher schools (ENSBA, ENSAD and ENSCI), the École nationale de la photographie d’Arles and Le Fresnoy – Studio national des arts contemporains in Tourcoing. The rules of entrance tests are also specific to these schools.

Third Cycle Study Programmes

Research in art schools is present at every level of teaching.

The three cycles of education progressively intensify the presence of research: though the question of research appears in the 1^st cycle, it is in the 2^nd cycle that the

“introduction to research” is truly developed, and it is in the 3^rd cycle that students themselves become researchers. The 3^rd cycle is training through research and articulates individual and creative production in the creative fields.

Third cycles nourish and are nourished by numerous occasional research programmes led by schools, alone, or together in association with other partners, and by research units, permanent structures dedicated to fundamental issues in art and design which aim to create spaces for the capitalization of knowledge and know-how.

They radicalize, over long or short periods, for one, two, three or even more than three years, the approach already at work in the DNSEP, built for and with young artists, designers and theoreticians already operating within the professional fields of art and design. Some schools award their own establishment certificate.

Certain schools, in partnership with universities, provide 3^rd cycle training validated by a Doctoral degree (PhD), the cycle being co-accredited and attached to a doctoral school. Often, these programmes belong to “practical doctorates”; that place the artistic object and the creative activity at the heart of their thesis, with artists also participating in university panels.

Postgraduate Courses

Postgraduate programmes are organized to take place over a short period (generally one year, but certain can be articulated over a number of years). Either they consist of a 6^th year of complementary training of professionalization, or they are part of creative residencies backed by grants, but not teaching in the context of a curriculum. In varying dimensions, postgraduate programmes allow professionals already engaged in their career to specialize, or realize a project while availing of the resources of the school and its artistic and cultural network (production logistics, the possibility of exhibiting in professional conditions...).

Art schools also propose ongoing training programmes (3D animation, drawing, painting, photography, screen printing, video,

participating artists, digital creation, ceramics...) the details of which can be found on the ANdÉA web site.

Centers for Validation of Acquired Experience

The system of validation of acquired experience (VAE) allows employees to validate their professional and/or voluntary experience, with a view to obtaining a qualification, a title with a professional utility or a certificate of qualification appearing on a list established by the national commission for employment in the specific professional field, and appearing in the national directory of professional qualifications (RNCP). The applicant wishing to have their skills validated must be able to justify at least three years of activity with a direct connection to the desired qualification.

The ANdÉA

The National Association of French Higher Schools of Art

Established in 1995, The National Association of Directors of Higher Schools of Art (ANDEA) became the National Association of Higher Schools of Art (ANdÉA) in May 2012.

Bringing together the totality of the 46 public art schools who deliver national qualifications at the level of BAC +3 and BAC +5 (the latter being a Master’s level qualification) and structured to receive the diverse range of participants who bring a wealth of talent and imbue it with life (directors, administrators, teachers, department heads, students), the ANdÉA is a platform for thought, a body of proposition and a force for the affirmation of the specific nature of teaching in the context of higher education in the domain of art.

In a context of the restructuring of the landscape of higher education, the association intends to promote and develop a unique model of teaching and research, which is characterized by the primacy of its reference to the field of art, to its values and its models — irreducible in this sense to the single field of academic higher education but capable, for this very reason, of enjoying a fruitful relationship with the self-same.

The ANdÉA fully and wholeheartedly contribute to the debate of contemporary ideas, by arguing in favor of the unique, emancipatory model of art schools, at a time when both education and creativity have become political, social and economic issues of the utmost importance.
