The School of Visual Arts has long prided itself on the reputation and experience of its faculty. More than 1000 artists, writers, designers, filmmakers and photographers come straight from their studios and workplaces to our classrooms to nurture the talent of the future by sharing their experiences and insights into the arduous and exhilarating process of becoming an artist.

Our faculty come because they want to. We do not ask them to accept more time than their professional lives permit, and to teach only so long that they enjoy teaching and continue to do it well. This balance pays off: At SVA we are justly proud of the substantial impact our faculty has made on our culture, evident by the names that appear in art publications and literary journals.

The faculty of SVA inspire and challenge our students to create work of power, integrity and imagination.
