About the MA in Critical Theory and Creative Research
The MA in Critical Theory and Creative Research (CT+CR), the first of its kind in the US, is an accelerated, 45-credit, seminar-based program (one year & summer intensive) that prepares students for opportunities at the intersection of art, theory, and research. Located in a major center of creative risk-taking and social experimentation, the program combines the study of critical theory as a mode of socio-political critique concerning human meaning and agency with creative research as a largely process-driven form of inquiry, forcing both theory and research in new directions within the context of a 21st century art school. Under the direction of Founding Co-Chairs Anne-Marie Oliver and Barry Sanders, the program is devoted to people and ideas and to a rethinking of the present and future of cultural production; of arts-based research and research-based arts; of curatorial practice, documentary, and the archive; and of social and political reconfiguration in relation to major sites of contemporary contestation.
Generous scholarships for 2016–17 are available. To apply, go to www.pnca.edu.
