About The Vienna Academy of Visionary Art:
Located in Vienna city centre, across from the Hofburg Palace, The Vienna Academy revives classical techniques of painting while pursuing art as the expression of beauty, spirit and vision.
To transmit an in-depth practice of painterly technique, our school follows the established model of the Academy system, while also promoting individual creativity through the pursuit of Visionary Art.
Why Choose Us?
- Balancing Academics with Creativity
The curriculum emphasizes an ‘academic’ approach, but this is directed to the student’s creation of original compositions, based on their own ideas and designs.
- Professional Art Teachers
Each class is taught by skilled professionals who transmit their value of craft while sharing insights into the artist’s vocation.
- Classical & Modern Techniques
