The fundamental concept behind the training offered at Folkwang University of the Arts is an interdisciplinary approach to work and interconnections between the arts. Hence, a lively exchange between the different disciplines is as essential to study as are theatre and live experience – right from the start. Joy in experimentation, innovative art forms and concepts and constant relevance to the working and daily lives of artists and scholars, teachers and designers are strong features of every training course at Folkwang.
