Valais School of Art (EDHEA)

The EDHEA - Valais School of Art is situated in Southern Switzerland. The school offers a Bachelor in Fine Arts and a Master of Arts in Public Spheres. With a strong tradition in practice-based research, the EDHEA proposes a transdisciplinary and experimental approach to art that opens many doors beyond those of an artist’s studio. The focus on sound art, performance, environmental art, socially-engaged and community practices, prepares for a variety of professions in the fields of visual culture. 

The striking Valais alpine situation provides a unique studying environment that is an ideal site for focused, in-depth studies and at the same time connected to the country’s major urban centres.
