Goals

The Academy follows the goal of continuous and timely development. It hereby follows the principles of founder Professor Erich Kraemer "Art through Knowledge" to realize this and pass it on to anyone interested in art. The Academy is a meeting place of international artistry. Beyond the creative process, art history is taught and intense observation is promoted. Art is so made into an experience that covers more than the work process but fosters an understanding and sensitivity for art.
