Barcelona Academy of Art

The Barcelona Academy of Art is a highly specialised school dedicated to the teaching of drawing, painting and sculpture with a complete curriculum and teaching methods derived from the classical-realist tradition. It is a methodology based on the Renaissance, and revived by the main academic realist ateliers of the late nineteenth century (especially in the teachings of master painters such as Jean-Léon Gérôme, Léon Bonnat and Carolus-Durán).

The philosophy of the academy, which underlies its curriculum and its teaching method, requires a return to the direct study of nature and to the old masters as the foundation and point of reference of all artistic knowledge.

Learning to draw, paint and model with control, as well as understanding the theory behind the method, will not only serve the person and artist who wants to grow as a professional in the fine arts, but also those people who want to dedicate themselves to the field of digital illustration, design, or positions related to the film industry and video games, among other professions.
