Within the framework of the teacher training programme in Art Education, the Department of Fine Arts Innsbruck imparts knowledge, skills and techniques needed by students to be able to orientate themselves in a visual and digital world, to comprehend it and to help shape it artistically. In order to sharpen a differentiated, sensory, reflective perception, the department focuses equally on the process of artistic experimentation as well as on strategies of interaction, participation and education.

Arbeiten werden auf Arbeitsjacken, T-Shirts und andere tragbare Elemente übertragen. Die Werke verlassen Wand, Tisch und Buch und treten in Bewegung. Nicht jede*r trägt das eigene Bild – der Trägerwechsel ist zentral.
