The KHM logo looks like a black square. And that is what it is. But that is not all that it is: there is much more to it! When the designers Uwe Loesch and Michael Wichelhaus created the newly founded academy's logo in 1990, they chose a form that offers many possibilities to draw connections. The history of art over the last century has been full of obsessions for the square: one thinks of Kazimir Malevich's Black Square, Hans Richter's early experimental films, Samuel Beckett's television play Square, John Baldessari's photo series Throwing four balls in the air to get a square, etc. Squares have the advantage of being neither ornamental nor directional. As a neutral …

Around 2500 years ago in Athens the Greek philosopher Plato created the original model of the ‘academy’ with his school of philosophy: a sheltered secluded environment close to the name-giving Akademeia grove dedicated to free thinking, unfettered by any dogmas. This description applies to Nuremberg not only in respect of the unique academy grounds, but also and more importantly, to a key aspect of our fundamental self-conception: as an academy, and especially as the first art academy to be founded in the German-speaking world in 1662, we are committed to this original historical concept of the ‘academy’ institution. We regard our academy as a ‘safe zone’ of the (im)possi…

The hallmark of studying at the Academy is that both students of the Fine Arts and students following a teacher training course in Art Teaching are taught in the same class-groups. The some 300 students enrolled at the Academy learn through creating their own art works, discussing the results with their instructors and openly seeking an exchange of ideas with their fellow students. Underlying this form of teaching is the belief that art can be successfully taught and studied only through the process of its conception and creation. Alongside these classes, the respective courses include wide-ranging studies in Art History and Art Theory and involvement in workshop activiti…
