The research Master's specialisation in Art and Visual Culture studies the relationship between art, the past and the present from various angles, including the interpretation of the cultural contexts of visual expressions and their transformations throughout the ages up to now. This specialisation is geared towards classical archaeologists, art historians and cultural scholars alike. You'll gain insight into general humanities methods and theories as well as those specific for those three fields. You can then go to focus on your own topic in the field of Art-Historical, Cultural Studies and Archaeology.

The Master's specialisation welcomes students with interest in all forms of art and visual culture. Our own research primarily focuses on Europe and 'its worlds', including how European artefacts interact with and differ from the rest of the world. Our research studies artefacts in the broadest sense, ranging from the more traditional forms as sculptures, paintings and architecture to modern ones as film, digital art, the performing arts and even fashion.
