Fine Arts (Fine Art)
Bachelor
The Bachelor of Fine Arts at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague (KABK) aims to align the past of fine art with its present and future. We embrace history and tradition, rooting our discourse firmly in the contemporary while researching and imagining the future of fine art as an indispensable contributor to culture, society, and ecology.
The programme centres on the enmeshment of theory, research, and practice — emphasizing critical speculative reflections on art and its role in our societies and future(s). Therefore, you will be encouraged to work across disciplines through ongoing practice to experiment, research, reflect, and contextualise your work. With the focused guidance of our tutors and workshop staff (and a range of guests and visiting experts), you develop and push your artmaking through peer reviews, project presentations, critiques, and tutorials.
You can obtain the degree in two different ways: by following the full-time programme or the Amalgam part-time programme.

The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a student-centred system based on the student workload required to achieve the objectives of a programme of study.
