The San Francisco Studio School, located one block from the Transamerica Pyramid, offers certificate programs.
The San Francisco Studio School represents a clearly defined, highly concentrated and contemporary approach to the study of fine art. Its program confronts substantial problems related to art education today by eliminating the fragmentation of continuity common in many degree-granting curricula. It emphasizes the development of the student's work based in visual principles and cogent responses to current issues in art.
The program demands meaning over the vagaries of the fashion-driven art market and at the same time rejects the formulaic and largely empty repetition associated with the academic approach to art. The overall philosophy of the school includes working from observation to intensify perception. This means the student will work intensely from the model, still life and landscape as well as from the imagination through the related mediums of drawing, painting, photography and mixed media. The form the artwork takes may evolve to be either realistic or abstract based on the individual artist's sensibility and emphasis.
