We will teach you to paint starting with a traditional approach before moving on to master the latest techniques. Bringing art, the future and a profession within your grasp along a single educational pathway.
Visual arts are the most ancient creative activities. The skills and talents of the artist are still in need today. RUFA teaches young people how to express themselves. They start from tradition while mastering contemporary techniques: painting, video, performance art, installations, electronic art. The modern visual artist must be aware of history as well as of the times in which we live. RUFA helps its students to combine art, future, and professionalism into a single project. The job opportunities of students that have attended their BA in Painting are in the fields of visual art, graphic art, and painting as a pure artistic form of expression.
