The Nantes Saint-Nazaire school of fine art places the originality of the student’s artistic work at the centre of the training process, providing an environment for experimentation, production and invention. Recognised for its international dynamism and innovative spirit, the school trains artists, helps them integrate into working life and contributes towards the influence of the young contemporary art scene.
