Institute for Doctoral Studies in the Visual Arts (IDSVA)

The IDSVA PhD in Visual Arts: Philosophy, Aesthetics, and Art Theory is a non-studio PhD for artists and creative thinkers. As a true nomadic institution, IDSVA does not have a campus. We exist everywhere our students and faculty are. The IDSVA experience fuses interactive online education with intensive residencies in Rome, Spannocchia Castle (Tuscany), Siena, Florence, Venice, Berlin, Paris, Athens, Madrid, Marrakech, Mexico City, and NYC.

Breakfast, lunch, coffee break and dinner every day. We will go to Florence on Thursday, May 30, 2024, and Siena on Wednesday, June 5, 2024. We will be out from 9am-10pm.
