Featured Program

Master of Arts in Arts Politics
The Master of Arts (M.A.) in Arts Politics combines an administrative home within the Tisch School of the Arts with key partnerships across schools to offer a spectrum of interdisciplinary courses. The curriculum examines, in an activist key, the relation between art and society and the role of the artist in civic life. Art is treated as providing a particular lens through which the social world can be understood, and as a medium of cultural intervention in political processes. The program will provide students with the opportunity to come together to reflect critically on the discourses and practical strategies that issue from the ability of art to intervene in and transform to social world. Arts politics considers art as both a way of knowing and a kind of action, as an invitation to claim artistic citizenship and a means to democratize the public sphere. The M.A. in Arts Politics provides a critical and analytic setting in which artists and others with a social commitment to the arts can develop the means for an appraisal of the political implications and social significance of their work.
