• The Brandeis Department of Fine Arts invites students to experience art as both scholarship and a process of creation. By uniting artistic excellence with intellectual inquiry, we affirm the importance of a broad education in preparing our students for creative participation in a changing society. The department offers programs in studio art and history of art for undergraduates, and our post-baccalaureate program in studio art is recognized as one of the finest in the country.

  • Founded in 1951 by Social Realist painter Mitchell Siporin, the Department of Fine Arts features a distinguished faculty of exceptional artists and noted art historians. A new fine arts complex, complete with new artists' studios, digital library, and student gallery is currently being planned for completion in 2007.
