The next dean of the VCU School of the Arts will also serve as the special assistant to the provost for the School of the Arts in Qatar and will have the opportunity to join a highly energetic, engaged and talented faculty, staff and student population. The school, with a graduate arts program that has the highest U.S. News & World Report ranking ever achieved by a public university arts and design school, has established itself as a creative force, locally, nationally and internationally. The school encompasses a wide spectrum of disciplines whose distinctiveness fosters opportunities for premier collaborations and synergies within the school, across the university and around the globe. The next dean must embrace the opportunity to provide leadership for the caliber of creative work within the school. The faculty, students, staff and community set high aspirations for themselves, individually and as a school, and will expect the same from their next dean. The School of the Arts educates approximately 3,000 undergraduates and more than 140 graduate students through programs both in Richmond and in Doha, Qatar. In Richmond, students are taught by over 175 full- time teaching and research faculty members and more than 200 others who bring direct artistic experience into the classroom on a part-time basis, as well as 39 staff members that assist in in daily processes.

  • Stephanie Smith Named Chief Curator of New Institute for Contemporary Art at VCU
    Stephanie Smith Named Chief Curator of New Institute for Contemporary Art at VCU ICA at VCU Will Open in Richmond, VA in Fall 2017 Building Designed by Steven Holl Architects is a Gateway Between University and City, and Anchor for Richmond’s Vibrant Arts Community Richmond, VA – September 27, 2016 – The Institute for Contemporary Art (ICA) at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) today announced the appointment of Stephanie Smith as its Chief Curator. The new, non-collecting contemporary art institution will open in Richmond in fall 2017. The Chief Curator is a new position in which Smith will manage the expanding curatorial team and work closely with ICA Director Lisa Freiman and the Curator of Education, Johanna Plummer, to realize and demonstrate the ICA’s artistic vision. Smith is currently the Chief Curator of the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, and will assume her position at the ICA this November. Designed by Steven Holl Architects, the ICA will be a significant new cultural resource for Richmond and VCU, in direct dialogue with VCU School of the Arts, the #1 ranked public school of art and design in the U.S. The ICA’s flexible programming spaces allow the institution to be simultaneously part exhibition and performance space, part lab and incubator. Its fluid design acknowledges the increasing lack of barriers between different media and practices, mirroring VCU’s interdisciplinary approach. The ICA will offer a vital new dimension to a national research university and contribute to a national and international dialogue. The $41-million, three-story building is located at Richmond’s historic Belvidere and Broad intersection, one of the city’s most trafficked junctures directly off Interstate 95.

  • Art School 1 Art School
    Art school 1 Art school Art school is a general term for any educational institution with a primary focus on the visual arts, especially illustration, painting, photography, sculpture, and graphic design. The term applies to institutions with elementary, secondary, post-secondary or undergraduate, or graduate or postgraduate programs in these areas. They are distinguished from larger institutions which also may offer majors or degrees in the visual arts, but only as one part of a broad-based range of programs (such as the liberal arts and sciences). France's École des Beaux-Arts is, perhaps, the first model for such organized instruction, breaking with a tradition of master and 1881 painting by Marie Bashkirtseff, In the apprentice instruction when it was formed.

Associate degrees and professional diploma programs are common as well. Art schools Art and design schools in the United States In the U.S., art and design schools that offer bachelor of fine arts or Master of Fine Arts degrees break down into basic types with some overlap and variations. The most highly rated schools belong to a consortium formed in 1991 and called the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design (AICAD). These schools differ from for-profit career schools in that they require a strong component of liberal arts courses in addition to art and design courses, providing a well-rounded college degree.
