Call for Applications

Session XI, 2015-2017


Economies: Can artistic practice produce viable economies outside of the art market? From art market supremacy to economic strategies dissociated from the art market

The Institut des hautes etudes en arts plastiques (Iheap) is a graduate institute for research and experimentation in art. It is the educational branch of the Biennale de Paris.

The Institut des hautes etudes en arts plastiques (Iheap) offers participants a course of study wherein they can free themselves from the inherited art history of the 20th century by investigating crucial issues of art in the 21st century, an ongoing history in which participants will eventually take part.

Iheap is open to all those who have an interest in singular and extreme practices which currently and sporadically appear in the art world and elsewhere. Iheap is for those who want to change their artistic practice or professional activity, for those who after several years of art school want to break free of alienated learning, who expect more from a school than a framework for artistic production, for those who reject art as it is commonly practiced, and finally for those who wish to work on essential issues in intimate and experimental conditions.

The course of study is completed in two years. The first year is composed of work sessions that mix practice and theory. The second year is dedicated to the creation of an activity report and a project. Its purpose is to demonstrate the development of the participantís research.

Iheap delivers a French Post-Diploma, which is research-based and usually given after a Masters or in parallel with a PhD. Complimentary with other degrees, it is possible to be enrolled in another course of study while attending Iheap. Eligible candidates are not, however, required to hold a prior degree.

The application fee is 70 Dollars. Tuition is 9000 Dollars for two years studies.

The submission of an application is an online process:
