ACT is headed by distinguished artist-professors and supported by a dynamic cast of practitioner graduate students and staff\, visiting artist-lecturers\, affiliates\, and guests. Through an integrated approach to pedagogy\, public event programming\, exhibitions\, and publications\, ACT builds a community of artist-thinkers around the exploration of art’s complex conjunctions with culture and technology. ACT is not an art school in the traditional sense. The program’s mission is to promote leadership in critical artistic practice and deployment\, developing art as a vital means of experimenting with new modes of knowled! ge\, valuation\, and expression; and to continually question what an artistic research and learning environment can be and do. \nBorn out of the 2009 merger between MIT’s influential Center for Advanced Visual Studies (CAVS\, founded in 1967 by György Kepes) and the Visual Arts Program (VAP\, founded in 1989)\, ACT shares in a rich heritage of work expanding the notion of visual studies and enabling art to enlist science and technology in cultural production\, critique\, and dissemination at the civic scale. \nAs part of MIT’s School of Architecture and Planning\, ACT inhabits a vibrant ecosystem of programs\, centers\, and research labs that continue to promote this interplay between science\, technology\, art\, and design. \nIn addition to engaging in transdisciplinary projects with researchers in departments\, labs\, and centers at MIT\, ACT faculty work with scholars and institutions in the US and around the globe including Iceland\, Cuba\, Mexico\, Brazil\, UK\, Finland\, Norway\, Germany\, Bosnia\, China\, and Japan\, bringing external reviewers\, artists\, speakers\, and students to visit and collaborate with ACT students and faculty. The Office of the Arts at MIT extends the opportunities available to students for collaboration and exchange with internationally recognized artists and scholars. \nFaculty\nJudith Barry / Renée Green / Gediminas Urbonas / Azra Akšamija / Nida Sinnokrot / Lara Baladi / Mario Caro / Andy Graydon / Marisa Jahn/ Jesal Kapadia / Tobias Putrih / Rasa Smite / Raitis Smits \n  \n \nACT Open House Application and Financial Information from ACTMIT on Vimeo. \n  \n*Schedule of events is subject to change.
