An MFA should be a short term investment in a long career.
Keep your job, remain debt-free.
Exhibit and perform internationally.
Get the attention your work deserves.
Become a Transartist, apply now.
Ongoing connections, critique and support are essential ingredients for a vital artistic practice and successful academic career, equally important to the work itself. Join an international group of emerging and mid-career artists and curators. Transartists stay connected and active, continuing to show, curate and perform together internationally.
Build a sustainable practice, create your own course of study, get the support you need from advisors, find a balance between your artwork and other professional obligations while you are in the program. Keep working, pay as you go.
On-site and on-line, 2 winter sessions in New York, 3 summer sessions in Berlin, 4 semesters off-site.
This summer. Come to Berlin, meet your colleagues and advisors. Make your plans, get a creative surge with workshops, seminars, pecha kuchas, artist talks, tours, multiple crits, discussion groups and the biennial Transartfest.
Make the work you've always wanted to in any media with the support of your studio advisors and weekly crit group. Support your studio work with whatever research interests you and best supports your practice.
Continue as a graduate to flourish in the Transartist community of artists and curators taking advantage of fellowships, technical and funding support, micro-financing networks, start-up funding initiatives, studio exchanges, curator and peer critique groups, and special calls. And yes, Transartists are invited back.
Become a Transartist, debt-free, with a thriving practice and career in 2 years.

Creative Surge
Vital Practice
New Work
Very few spots left for this year's Transart MFA and Certificate programs.
This summer in Berlin. Make a collective stop-motion animation in one day, watch Afroeuropean films for another, sit in on 24 talks in the Trans-what? symposium, take a tour to the outer edges of Berlin from the film "Umland", explore the politics of place through the ecological metaphors of "The Native and the Invasive", walk the walk in the workshop "Within Walking Distance", inquire into what actually happens when we think we share, or dare to engage in a voice lab and perform your voice across the thresholds of personal limits, stay up too late, approach ways of ending without making it an end in itself, hear Ensemble Xenon's composer-performers straddle the fence between free and noted music, get lost, take on a life drawing class with a life of it's own, cafe hop in "Writing Art/Artist's Writing", question the power of sound, smell, and touch as triggers to memory that connect you to your present experiences, consider displacement in a mobile discussion group, experiment, critique critiques, see all the nominated films from the Trans-ideology: Nostalgia short film fest over several evenings, don't think about your job once for three weeks, participate in speed crits and slow crits, perform or show in a public open frame event, get new takes on old work, show new work for the first time, learn the basics of psychoacoustics, hear what fifty other artists are up to pecha kucha style, go to openings, galleries, fool around, get suggestions for a list of books on your topic you won't be able to put down.
Take it all back to your studio along with your plans and create a body of work like nothing you've done before.
Be assured of the support, encouragement, feedback and resources you need in order to take all necessary risks.
Find a sustainable balance and remain debt free. Keep working, pay as you go.
Work on-site and on-line, 2 winter sessions in New York, 3 summer sessions in Berlin, work wherever you live.
Become a Transartist, with a thriving international practice and career in 2 years.

Call for papers/proposals: Transart Institute Symposium
Deadline:

Location:

Trans-what?
Across and Beyond (Artistic) Research
Transart Institute Symposium
www.transart.org/transartfest/trans-what/
Sunday 28 July 2013 @ Supermarkt, Berlin
http://www.supermarkt-berlin.net
Call for papers/proposals (deadline 15 May 2013)
The prefix 'trans-' points to some of the problems of universal concepts
and ongoing boundary disputes between epistemes. It modifies the meaning
of what it is attached to: transaction, transcription, transgression,
translocation, transmission, translation, transdisciplinarity, to name
only a few of the many examples in contemporary culture. Transart
Institute positions itself in these alternative name-spaces where art
practice, knowledge production, and research processes operate in the
tensions between, across, through, and beyond establishing paradigms.
Rather than prefixing meaning, Hito Steyerl talks about artistic
research speaking several languages at once – and as "an act of
translation". But if this is the case, the symposium asks how do we
further translate 'trans' to account for the apparent normalisation of
its application?
As part of an ongoing process of developing a research community and
network, we are organising our first symposium in a series of bi-annual
events. In doing this, we wish to be reflexive (not least about the use
of the term trans-art), and invite researchers, artist-researchers,
artists, and others, to explore some of these acts of translation.
We are seeking proposals from researchers, artists, artist-researchers,
curators, and academics for short papers or alternative forms of
presentation such as performance-lectures. Submissions might relate to
the following as a point of departure and as a possible structure for
the symposium:
- modes of communication and exchange (trans-actions, trans-missions).
- forms and paradigms through which artistic research operates
(trans-criptions, trans-disciplinarities)
- spaces in which knowledge is formed, produced and disseminated
(trans-locations)
- the deeper consequences of changing something to something else
(trans-gressions, trans-formations, translations)...
We hope to uncover alternative models of knowledge production; to
excavate relatively forgotten histories of attempts to rethink
organizational and institutional structures; to explore the potential of
technological paradigms to redefine possibilities; and reveal examples
of non-traditional methods, use of non-textual language, speculations,
and actions.
DEADLINE for proposals: 15 May 2013
- Notification of acceptance will be announced: 31 May 2013
- Paper proposals should consist of an abstract (300 words) with title +
biographies (100 words) in preparation for a 20 minute presentation
- Alternative forms of presentations should consist of a proposal (300
words) with weblinks as appropriate to visuals, performances, etc.
- Submissions and all inquiries regarding submissions should be made to
henmi@transart.org
- Proposals will be reviewed by faculty from Transart Institute, Aarhus
University and Plymouth University.
