ART 272Y - The Arts of Amsterdam (4.5 Cr.)


This three-week intensive blends Arts Administration-the business practices of arts and culture-with behind-the-scenes explorations of the performing and visual arts in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Students attend performances and tour museums and alternative arts spaces not just experienced as an audience member or tourist, but as an active observer to examine how they are professionally managed and presented. Students will learn about the management and funding structures found in the Netherlands and will frequently meet with administrators, cultural leaders, practitioners, and other behind-the-scenes staff. We will also enjoy and explore the rich offerings of our host country’s culture, history, and architecture, frequently traveling by bike for the ultimate Dutch experience. This program is prioritized for Arts Administration Concentration students and students who are Arts Majors or Minors (Art History, Dance, Music, Studio Arts, and Theatre). A minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 is required. Offered every year starting 2015. Lohr, Oettinger.
