LEARNING

Gallery North is a learning space - an intersection between teaching and research, practice, and the professional world. Each exhibition is programmed to engage directly with students’ learning within their modules and programmes. The Gallery is a place where students, technicians, academic staff and practitioners can come together to think, challenge, learn and play.

Creative practices enable individuals to question how things function as well as providing the means through which to make changes to society. Students and researchers at Northumbria are well-equipped to make timely interventions in response to twenty-first century grand challenges. We are committed to developing the next generation of creative makers and leaders.

The Department of Arts

From creating fine art to conserving it; from animation to film, theatre and television, through to arts management and teaching, our Arts department is a dynamic and stimulating environment to study a wide range of courses. Learn from world-renowned experts in Fine Art, Performance and Visual Cultures.

Matters pertaining to social justice underpin activity in the Department. We collaborate with our local, national, and international communities to understand the impact of inequalities. Through creative practices, such as works of art, film, media, and theatre and performance, we imagine better futures and lead on making them a reality. We do this through our expertise in regeneration and with our partners in the creative sectors. We are specialists in understanding the importance of material and cultural history, subcultures, marginalised groups, and individuals. We understand the power and importance of representation.
