Course program
IBB strives to prepare her students to be as well prepared as possible to get admission to and finish an art academy on their way to a successful creative career.
The IBB offers a wide range of workshops to the students that will equip them with the proper skills and information to attend a college level creative school. The students that finish the entire course of two years (or more depending on the age and educational level of the students) can count on our support and the network that IBB offers. Every day from 10:00 until 18:00 we offer our students a carefully balanced and broad program of practical and theoretical information about the visual art field.

Work modules
The institute offers flexible modular courses in which differences in background education and (creative) development between students are recognized. The courses aim at developing skills and insights of the students depending on their own level.

Teachers, guest artists, visiting scholars and curators:
IBB works with a Master / Apprentice educational model where practicing artists and creatives educate the students while also exposing them as much as possible to the realities of a professional artistic and creative working environment. Students get taken along in the work process of these educators and thus learn what it’s really like to be a working artist.
Together with the local team of artists who work at IBB there’s also a constantly changing group of international artists who are present at IBB through its various artist in residency programs. These international artists also give workshops and through that expand the skillset and perspective of the students.

Cost and additional information
Complete course of one year: Nafl. 3.500,-. Upon approval of a student’s admission a non-refundable fee of Nafl. 350,- is required to be paid. Once the student starts the academic year this amount will be deducted from their tuition.
