Multimedia Arts

Innovation, experimentation, interdisciplinarity: this is the perfect formula to combine technological excellence and creativity, in order to configurate the meaning of being a multimedia artist nowadays. Encouraging a critical approach to the potential of integrating different artistic languages, Multimedia Arts course interconnects theoretical and practical abilities with the goal to train key players in this fields.
The three-year Multimedia Arts course offers a stimulating trip through the main expressive languages that are characteristic of today’s contemporary art practices. In the last twenty years, the horizons of the art world have changed completely. Art works have gradually abandoned the material to become software, offering onlookers worlds, perceptions and situations that are absolutely innovative and futuristic.
The digital era is inevitably changing the world we live in, blurring the confines between the real and the virtual world. In this scenario art is also forced to take a hard look at itself and at its own function. Nourished by the information flows produced on the web, by the possibilities offered by the social network and, above all, by experimentation with cutting-edge technology, art is called upon to meet the expectations of an increasing public that more and more often is seeking immersive, interactive experiences, where the limits and physical or spatial obstructions are removed.
Designed for all those people who want to acquire the skills that will help them to express their own creativity and apply it both to the world of art and to other sectors such as fashion, the Multimedia Arts course at Istituto Marangoni focuses on audiovisual languages and on the potential offered by new digital technologies with a particular focus on virtual reality and video mapping.
