the New York Academy of Art Sculpture Department, illustrates
the emphasis of the Academy:

The New York Academy
of Figurative Art's graduate MFA program's curriculum
is directed toward students who have, as their primary
aspiration, the development of abilities with a
focus on traditional techniques. These traditional
skills, coupled with contemporary subject matter,
produce work that is representative of the human
condition as experienced within the society.
The curriculum of
the Academy is highly structured throughout both
academic years. In the first year, there is an emphasis
on the symbiotic relationship between technical
and skill development, and future application to
independent work. The second year addresses the
development of self-directed work, which is the
structure of the Diploma Project, and translates
into the senior thesis. Throughout both academic
years, the students are offered seminars engaging
contemporary art and the ideas that drive it. The
seminars are a comprehensive lecture series in conjunction
with talks and critiques by prominent visiting artists.
