“The Master’s program offers the opportunity to refine your curatorial skills, especially on a theoretical level. The exercises proposed in the courses cover the entire curatorial process, from conceptual development and gallery layout to aspects related to funding, legal frameworks, and dissemination. In addition, analyses of digital art exhibitions will be conducted, which enhances the curator’s critical thinking. All of this helps students to delve deeper into the art industry, develop professionally, and begin developing their own projects.

“Digital art is not art that is seen on a screen. It is any space of freedom won from preconceived ideas in a quantified, interconnected society that is afraid of the future.”
