New York's School of Visual Arts (SVA) has announced Photo Global, a one-year residency in photography for international students. The new program is set to begin with the 2006-2007 academic year, and will include guest instructors and lecturers such as Elinor Carucci, Gregory Crewdson, Jessica Craig-Martin, Tim Davis, Marc Joseph, Jack Pierson, Collier Schorr, Larry Sultan, and James Welling.
Photo Global is designed to advance the individual work of participants through critique, lectures, dialogue with other participants and museum and gallery visits. Students take a seminar and contemporary photography course, and are encouraged to take photography electives alongside students enrolled in the BFA Photography Department at SVA.
Although the emphasis will be on the content of the work, a broad range of technical courses -- applicable to both digital and traditional formats -- will be available. In addition to the full resources of the BFA Photography Department, the resources of the MFA Photography Department will be available on an informal basis. Participants will receive 30 credits for successful completion of the certificate program.
The application deadline is Monday, May 22, and fall courses begin Sept. 5. For more information, e-mail photoglobal@sva.edu. To apply, visit www.sva.edu/photoglobal.
