Overview

Tyler Sculpture at Temple University represents a small, supportive cohort of dynamic artists. The program’s intensive, exploratory approach to sculpture, including material-based, film and video, sound, performance, large-scale architectural installation, and time-based media, offers students exciting opportunities for collaboration and discourse with Tyler’s entire faculty and M.F.A. community, as well as access to all of Tyler’s specialized shops.

Located in Philadelphia, an affordable city close to New York, Tyler offers M.F.A. students opportunities to immerse themselves in a vibrant contemporary art scene and urban landscape at the intersection of art and social practice. It is an ideal home base for students to creatively address real-world problems and directly impact communities. A Tyler Sculpture M.F.A. degree prepares graduates to be practicing artists and educators at colleges and universities.

Areas of Specialization

Courses provide a framework to develop individual creative practices and professional goals within a community of peers. The faculty to student ratio of two full-time Sculpture professors to eight graduate students provides a supportive learning environment, while encouraging a spirit of friendly competition.

The professors are actively exhibiting artists with differing aesthetics and are able to provide mentorship in a range of areas within sculptural practice. Graduate students are selected to represent a diversity of sculptural approaches.
