[Bildnerische] Innsbruck

Within the framework of the teacher training programme in Art Education, the Department of Fine Arts Innsbruck imparts knowledge, skills and techniques needed by students to be able to orientate themselves in a visual and digital world, to comprehend it and to help shape it artistically. In order to sharpen a differentiated, sensory, reflective perception, the department focuses equally on the process of artistic experimentation as well as on strategies of interaction, participation and education.

    Unqualified specialists for science, technology and art: There is a particularly large shortage of teachers in STEAM subjects. The qualification of unqualified and lateral entrants is a good way to close this gap in a timely manner. ProQ-STEAM investigates how early entry or transition into the teaching profession in science subjects, technology & design and art & design succeeds and how professional identity is formed.

    Research project

Bilder_Nische

Since 2020, a risograph called Rosa has been at the heart of the student-run self-publishing house "Bilder_Nische". Under this label, joint publications are conceived, designed, printed, bound and finished annually by the students of [Bildnerische] Innsbruck.

These include the art publications "Free as an Artist" (2021) and "Glow in the Dark" (2022), as well as diverse and individually designed art editions and unique pieces.
