MassArt enables students to become thoughtful and innovative image makers, through rigorous engagement with the medium’s technical and aesthetic possibilities.

At MassArt, we approach photography as an opportunity for conversation-–a way to express our evolving perspectives on a changing world. Through critique, collaboration, creation, and critical thinking, students strive, together with accomplished faculty, to explore the potent and versatile language of photography. Situated in Boston’s thriving artistic community, the MassArt Photography department offers students boundless resources and opportunities for artistic growth, community, and professional development.

 

As a MassArt student, I was fortunate to be surrounded by faculty who served as exceptional role models of how to effectively balance life as an artist-educator. Robert Knight ’06 MFA Photography
