Jewish School of Art
The Jewish School of Art was initiated by Institut für Neue Soziale Plastik and is comprised of courses by internationally renowned artists such as David Adika, Yael Ronen or Ilit Azoulay.
They offer master classes or workshops covering a range of disciplines, for Jewish students and young adults who are critical of antisemitism. The aim is to promote the artistic development of art students, alumni and others interested in art and further facilitate new networks in, and perspectives on the art and cultural sector.
ABOUT THE JEWISH SCHOOL OF ART
At a very challenging time for Jewish creative workers and those critical of antisemitism the Jewish School of Art supports their individual creative development. The Jewish School of Art also provides positive impetus to the art world and its institutions to create sustainable structures for the exchange of artistic perspectives and to counteract antisemitic incidents in academic, artistic and institutional contexts.
The ‘Artistic Safer Spaces’ of the school enable the exchange of perspectives and creative development. The program culminates in a presentation of the developed projects in a renowned cultural venue in Berlin. An artistic background of the participants is very welcome, but not mandatory. Everyone is free to choose which masterclass they may be interested in.
We accept applications by everyone regardless of their religious or cultural identity or background.
