Faculty of Fine Arts

General Presentation

Beginning with the Middle Ages, Oradea has imposed itself as an old traditional and cultural center, where the Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Secession has successively left their mark upon architecture. The opening towards the great artistic currents was natural under the circumstances where the decisive points proved to be the setting in a geographical area, which has always been a space of contact between the Eastern and Western civilizations as important of the presence here, through the world of the Romanian villages, of the artistic and cultural values of Eastern inspiration.

The contact with the Oriental and Western civilizations, the knowledge of the main art currents of Europe, the well-known value of the intellectual elite belonging to this area, the effort towards the academic education of higher rank, lie at the basis of an historical reality which nowadays bursts out in order to make Oradea, situated in the Western part of the Romanian world, an outstanding Academic centre. Within it, the Faculty of Fine Arts, with its sections, Sculpture, The Pedagogy of Art, Textile, Design, Restoration-Conservation, History and Theory of Art, to which others will be added (Ceramics, Glass, Metal, Photographic Art, Scenography) holds an important place, acknowledged by the existing demand in the area and even in the entire country.
