Offer Description

In the last few years, we questioned what "new" in the name NABA means to us (Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti means "New Academy of Fine Arts"). We believe that what is interesting are new perspectives, new ideas, and new knowledge. Therefore, a question that naturally came to our minds was: how can we be the bearers of this newness in the communities we are part of? The industry, students, artists, and society? We think that the best way to achieve that is through research, especially if done with the approach and methodology that belong to our disciplines. The institution has already taken a research-based approach in many projects, especially in the most advanced courses (MAs), as it strongly believes in artistic practice as a form of research. NABA is now ready to take a step forward toward research-based degrees in partnership with a like-minded institution: the HDK-Valand Academy of Art and Design at University of Gothenburg (HDK-Valand). Today, you are applying to the very first cycle of PhD courses in Italy, which belong to an entirely practice-based doctoral school. Two paid PhD positions are available for a duration of 4 years full time or up to 8 years part time. Although these positions do not require residency in Milan, it is strongly advised reside in its vicinity. You will be granted a salary of 26.000€ per year before tax, plus some extra funding for your projects for 4 years if studying full time. If you study part time, the same amount will be redistributed for the longer duration of your studies (i.e. if you study part time for 8 years you will receive 13.000€ before tax per year for 8 years, plus the same funds for your projects). We reserve the right to offer more positions after evaluating the applications. During this four-years (full time) or up to eight-years (part time) programme you will be able to experiment, develop, and implement your artistic practice in collaboration with NABA’s academic and artistic team. The programme structure includes seminars, lectures, teaching activities, and faculty projects development. You will have access to NABA's facilities and resources, as well as its broader network. You will be expected to participate in activities such as coordinating workshops, teaching, attending to conferences, exhibitions, and screenings. You will be assigned a tutor from NABA which will be your main point of assistance during your programme. More details on the programme and the activities will be published before commencement.
