The mission of SRISA is to provide students with
opportunities for artistic, academic, and personal
growth in an environment that will develop their
understanding of what it means to be a part of a
dynamic artistic and academic community with the
influence of an international setting.
The school's goal is to encourage purposeful inquiry,
fruitful dialog, and creative experimentation as
essential tools for students in the 21st century. SRISA
seeks to foster this goal through accessible, rigorous,
and meaningful learning experiences that
emphasize:
The discipline and the passion vital to participation
in the arts
The skills and techniques essential to mature
artistic expression
The value of excellence in academic and artistic
endeavor
The contributions of Italian art and culture, and
their impact on the artistic traditions of the
western world
A "liberal arts" education, which provides broad
exposure to a variety of places, ideas, and
perspectives
The development of the judgment, social skills, and
maturity necessary to live in a community that
differs, sometimes greatly, from the community of
one’s origin.
SRISA believes that a balanced curriculum of studio art
courses and academic courses provides the most
comprehensive experience for students who have chosen
Florence as their place of study. Course offerings in
liberal arts and culture complement the studio
disciplines to provide students with an intellectual
framework and historical context for their creative
work. Within each discipline, course activities present
a combination of traditional approaches and new
technologies for the pursuit of artistic ideas.
SRISA is committed to providing a well-trained
professional faculty and excellent facilities to give
students highly personalized instruction that conforms
to the expectations and requirements of an American
university curriculum.
