About ABK Stuttgart

The Stuttgart State Academy of Art and Design (Staatliche Akademie der Bildenden Künste Stuttgart), with a history extending back over 250 years, is one of the largest of its kind with University status in Germany. With 18 academic degree courses in four departments (Fine Arts, Architecture, Design, and Theories of Art-Conservation), it provides a broad spectrum of educational and research opportunities.

In addition to the artistic work in the classes and studios, there are over thirty workshop facilities where students can implement their ideas and concepts – in digital or non-digital form. These include workshops for metal and wood, for painting techniques and print as well as workshops for media, photography and computer aided design. The workshops are of fundamental importance for the students' artistic education and are places of interdisciplinary activity – a specific trait of the Stuttgart Academy.
Diploma Programmes: Fine Arts (study focus on sculpture, photography, graphics, glass design, installation art, ceramics, painting, performance art, video art, drawing), Stage and Costume Design, Industrial Design, Communication Design, Textile Design
