NABA was formed in 1980 by a group of internationally renowned artists with an innovative spirit geared towards experimental manual skills and design.

Our Philosophy:
NABA’s education integrates the traditional disciplines of visual representation, the contemporary digital practices as well as the critical project culture of Italian design.
