Seminar Content

Robert Gibb

Associate Professor & Course Director for Postgraduate Studies in School of Visual Communication

All students are required to present an art portfolio when they apply for an art & design programme. What makes a good portfolio? What kinds of works should be included and what shouldn’t? How should you present your portfolio? Should you write an explanation or let the work speak for itself?

In the seminar, Robert Gibb (Associate Professor & Course Director for Postgraduate Studies in School of Visual Communication) from Birmingham City University will introduce all the basics of art portfolios, provide examples and share what expectation art schools have in their students.

  • The Basics of Art Portfolio: The sketchbook, How many pieces of work should you include? What kind of work can you include?
  • Specific portfolio requirement for different art disciplines
  • Examples of outstanding Art Portfolios from the past

Details of Event: Can I Meet with the Admissions Representative for Portfolio Assessment and Interview?

After the Seminar, students with their portfolio are welcome to meet with the Lecturer for admission interviews and portfolio assessments. It doesn’t matter if students don’t have a complete portfolio yet – you are welcome to show the lecturer your existing artwork, so that you can learn what to include and find out which subject areas might be more suitable for you!
