Once the US was the only country in the world to offer a doctorate
for studio artists, however the PhD in fine art disappeared after
pressures established the MFA as the terminal degree for visual
artists. Subsequently, the PhD in fine art emerged in the UK and is
now offered by approximately 40 universities. Today the doctorate
is offered in most English-speaking nations, much of the EU, and
countries such as China and Brazil. Using historical, political,
and social frameworks, this book investigates the evolution of the
fine art doctorate in the UK, what the concept of a PhD means to
practicing artists from the US, and why this degree disappeared in
the US when it is so vigorously embraced in the UK and other
countries. Data collected through in-depth interviews examine the
perspectives of professional artists in the US who teach graduate
level fine art. These interviews disclose conflicting attitudes
toward this advanced degree and reveal the possibilities and
challenges of developing a potential doctorate in studio art in the
US.
