History
HEAR was created in 2011 by merging three higher
education institutions in Alsace:
• The Académie Supérieure de Musique of Strasbourg
stemmed from the Strasbourg Conservatory created
in 1855.
• The Mulhouse Ecole Supérieure d’Art, founded in 1825
by the Industrial Society of Mulhouse as a drawing
school focused on the textile industry, which became
the Mulhouse municipal school of Fine Arts in 1945;
• The Strasbourg Ecole Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs founded by the city of Strasbourg in 1892 as a
professional school of Applied Arts, offering a vast
choice of workshops (joinery/carpentry, metalwork,
ceramics, bookbinding, lithography and embroidery
among others);

City of Mulhouse
Mulhouse is sometimes called the “French Manchester”
for its rich industrial past. The city is famous for
its technical museums such as the Electricity museum,
the Cité du train and the Cité de l’automobile. Another
world known museum is the Musée de l’impression
sur étoffes which holds a collection of more than
3 million samples. The high number of empty 19th
century industrial buildings makes Mulhouse
a wonderful “playground” for young artists.
Mulhouse is located 30 km away from Basel in Switzerland, another city with a rich and vibrant cultural and
student life. Mulhouse is 100 km away from Strasbourg;
the train ride takes 50 minutes.

Theoretical classes at HEAR are taught by specialized
faculty and constitute teachings that nourish the
student’s entire curriculum, so that he/she is able
to situate and maintain a critical distance with
his/her artistic productions.
These classes offer a varied approach, in historical, thematic, and transversal content as well as in disciplines
ranging from semiotics, aesthetics, history of modern
and contemporary art, just like specific History based
on mediums (photography, graphics, design, typography...). Most of the classes are taught in French only.

Departments and
specializations
9 – 13
This detailed description will help you choose
your department and specialization at HEAR.
Exchange students can easily combine classes
from different specializations as long as they have
the approval of the departmental coordinator.
Art
The Art department is marked by the presence
of an active sound art workshop and thus grants
a particular interest in the question of the propagation
of art in space in its material and immaterial dimensions.
The department reunites artist faculty engaged
in several media (photography, video, engraving,
drawing, scenography, painting, sculpture, process arts)
favoring the support of diversified student projects.
The sound arts function as a base camp for a firmly
prospective contemporary art.
Design and Textile Design
Mulhouse was marked by a vital industrial activity.
The relationship between Arts and Industry gave
pace and structure to the city. Today, the post-industrial
heritage provides the student researchers with a dense
reflexive and meaningful medium, so as to imagine
a creative relationship to his/her environment, consider
the object of his/her production in full difference,
question skills, boost the can-dos and invent editing
and collective diffusion scales, where self-production
tools occupy a significant place.
Technical workshops
• Print(s) – engraving workshop
• Photography
• Computer graphics
• Sound
• Video
• Volume
• Carpentry
• Lithography
• Metalwork
• Laser cutting and engraving
Departments and specializations

Art
Research groups and workshops of the Art department
develop differentiated approaches towards contemporary art and the contexts of its distribution. These approaches are supported by extensive practice of various
media, techniques and materials. The Art department,
based on this range of possibilities, accompanies the
students on demanding and personalized experimental
territories.
“Farmteam”/”Storytellers”
“Farmteam” (Bachelor level) addresses students that
have the will to invent stories with their plastic creation.
A production of a sculptural, performative or pictural
narrative is possible, even though the audiovisual
medium remains a central preoccupation. “Storytellers”
(Master level) is searching for new shapes of narration.
The artistic medium is the audio-visual language
“Peinture(s)” – painting(s)
“Painting(s)” is a group where students are introduced
to painting, drawing and printing techniques, developing their own formal language. The idea is to support
and reflect together on the foundation of an art project.
This implies commitment, maturity and curiosity on the
part of students who have signed up. Critical analysis is
based on the students’ (all years combined) formal and
visual requirements.
“La Fabrique” - sculpture, installation
“La Fabrique” is a group that bases its teachings
on the necessity of helping singular artistic practices
to emerge. Here, sculpture finds a place for large format
production and has a privileged relationship with
the space within the sphere of contemporary art.
The pedagogical objectives are based on the need
to build independent thinking. This is articulated by
a critical, reasoned and referenced reflection:
to develop projects and master achievements, in order
to implement a work and to place oneself as an author/
creator when graduating.
“No Name” - mixed media, Art & Science
The teachings of the “No Name” group are thought
out for students who are open to present complexities
and who are concerned with developing fitting shapes.
Beyond any clannishness, this group tries to show
the movements related to a professional art practice:
to conceive, to spread and to document.
“Hors-Format” – mixed media
The “Hors-Format” group analyzes and builds artistic
events that are difficult to measure in size or weight.
Art, time, space, image, text, sound, body and
the relation to technology are used as malleable
materials. The attitudes and works of “Hors Format”
are consciously updated according to technical, social,
economic and/or physical themes, given or constructed, in order to strengthen, divert or combat them.
The teaching methods are critical and attentive
to the evolution of old techniques and new technologies; also to the evolution of the notion of authorship
(unique, plural...) and the relationship with partners
from scientific and technical or diverse artistic fields
(dance, theatre, music, urban planning, literature…).
Art-Object
During the Bachelor program each workshop
holds classes about materials, their discovery, their
experimental implementation and critical observation. Beyond the characteristics that distinguish the
six workshops, they share references, a transversal
pedagogy and are attentive to the presence of the
object in the artistic field. During the Master program,
students enroll in a workshop to work with the notion of
the object, around specific materials (clay, wood, metal,
glass, paper, etc.) or categories of objects (sculpture,
jewelry, book, etc.).
Every Thursday from 9 to 10:30 am the Art Object group
organizes an exhibition on the Strasbourg Visual arts
Campus.
Jewelry Workshop
Students enrolled in the workshop question notions
specific to contemporary Jewelry: its relation to the
body, its symbolic language, its preciousness, and its
decorative function. They invent formal responses at a
body scale in order to develop, within the artistic field,
a relevant and personal vision. Through collaboration
11
with other workshops and the use of various materials,
students discover shapes and unexpected expressions,
by suggesting new aesthetics in the field of Jewelry.
Metal Workshop
The Metal workshop is a place for reflection
and production. Intersecting different sociocultural,
economic, ecological, thoughts engages the student
in a creative debate. Metals, with all their specific
properties (conductivity, malleability, ductility, extensibility, charge capacity, etc.) are a starting point of a plastic
development. The student is guided towards an open
and curious approach, through free experimentation
with a variety of materials.
Wood Workshop
The Wood workshop establishes a pedagogy that
aims to support students in their personal approach by
providing elements that will grant them real autonomy,
guaranteeing their future independence as an author
or artist. This support is brought through technique
on the one hand, but also through all the elements that
ensure that the work produces a polysemic object that
will fit into one of the spheres of contemporary art creation. If it is agreed that the preferred material is wood
in all its approaches, it is also possible to use other
media or other means of expression.
Book Workshop
The Book workshop is a place for research, experimentation and specific teaching around the “book” medium
and editorial objects; deliberately entering the sphere
of contemporary art. The workshop brings its students
to explore “the book“, in its conceptual and material
dimensions, its various status and media, to examine
its history, developments and changes up to the most
current experiments.
Glass Workshop
The Glass workshop is a place of research and production that allows the student to develop his/her work
through both technical and theoretical approaches.
This gives him/her the chance to objectively understand its origins and place it in the contemporary art
sphere. Starting from a global reflection on the subject,
the student will analyze and deepen his/her work
by including the use of glass as any medium in a unique
plastic, functional and poetic production.
Ceramic Workshop
A ceramic workshop is ultimately just a “pebble”
factory; a 20.000 year-old technique and still topical.
Clays, sands, various minerals, oxygen, carbon - finely
proportioned, skillfully shaped - petrify in contact
with a high perennial material heat.
Communication
The Communication department consists of three
specializations: Graphic Communication, Information
Design and Illustration.
Each specialization develops its specific trainings
in full autonomy, but they all share the same goals:
• Attentively read the world of visual signs around
us and its underlying rhetorical processes
• Understand what gives power to images
and texts, and how they interact;
• Develop the works of authors engaged in artistic
and graphic practices that are fully anchored in reality;
• Graphically answer contemporary political and sociological questions.
Visual communication takes into account an order as much as its consignee. This is the methodology
towards which the students are, step by step, lead.
Visual communication questions the Media in its full
range from paper to “digital”, from book to audiovisual.
These teachings enhance the ethical and aesthetic
stakes of these tools, their impact on the subject
as much as the know-how that they require.
Graphic Communication
The Graphic Communication specialization aims
at training unique and responsible personalities
in the field of graphic design. It leads to various professions and encourages the practice of photography,
video and multimedia. If Graphic Design is seen as part
of the Applied arts, its experimental and creative aspect
is also encouraged. This specialization functions
as a laboratory, wide-open on contemporary society
and aware of its social, cultural, political and artistic
issues. It is open to the school’s other specializations,
as well as to cross-disciplinary practices and helps
students develop their research process, their ability
to analyze raised issues and their contexts, while maintaining a critical and committed attitude. The question
of the sign’s place, its status, the nature of the media
(printed, digital or hybrid) and its pervasiveness occupy
a singular place in this specialization.
12
Information Design
The Information Design specialization trains students to
teach with images, to transmit science and knowledge.
This teaching gives a central role to drawing, its graphic
technique and its use, as well as to technological developments (production and distribution). It implements
the theoretical approaches of cognitive science such
as educational science. That is why the specialization
has no exclusive practice and favors, according to the
context, an intermedia approach. Students are expected
to become full-fledged authors, sharing and participating in a sensitive and critical reading of the world;
designers who communicate through a visual point of
view. Students who wish to do so can follow a specific
course in medical illustration in collaboration with the
Faculty of Medicine of Strasbourg.
Illustration
The Illustration specialization teaches the narrative
image language and its relation to the text (from the
implied narration of a silent image to the complementary features of image and text on a page layout).
This language is complex to learn and produces
paradoxically simple and accessible reading for
a great majority of people. An important aspect
of the training is considering the reader, which requires
a certain type of humility and the riddance of all forms
of self-satisfaction from the author. The specificity
of the Illustration specialization is the independent and
singular copyright work, which is asked of the students
(even though being an author is not something that one
learns). Developing, nourishing a world and allowing
it to flourish, to exist, is the perpetual challenge that
the teaching staff of the Illustration specialization offers
to take up. Graphic experiments, research of graphic
style, staging, script, plot, character, color are some
of the key constituent elements of the pedagogy.
Design
Design operates in an ambiguous field that involves
technical concerns and symbolic dimensions, daily use
and prospective questions. It must be able to intersect
with the artistic practices and some of its theoretical,
social and political, sometimes formal questions.
It considers economic mechanisms, manufacturing
costs and methods. The diploma projects and the theoretical research that preceded them, reflect this broader
spectrum of questions.
Scenography
The scenography specialization is deliberately
interdisciplinary and examines how the question
of (re)presentation of space crosses the various fields
of contemporary creation. Fiction, the place of the spectator and the point of view of the one who is watching
are constitutive of the pedagogical project. Classes are
structured around 3 fields: Scenic Space, Public Space
and Exhibition design. If theatre remains the structuring
axis of the specialization, the questions often come
from conventional performance spaces to interrogate
and put into practice what, in public, urban, virtual
spaces, but also in contemporary art or museums,
is an active field of theatricality that can be called
“the scenic”. When you take a closer look there
is “scenic” almost everywhere: in life, in the city,
in artistic practices of all kinds... If the world is a stage,
it is the stage designer’s job to question the points of
views and the way things are perceived from different
territorial and cultural positions.

Housing financial assistance
You should check as soon as possible whether you
are eligible for housing financial assistance in France.
The Caisses d’Allocations Familiales (CAF) is a French
state assistance fund which can provide housing
aid called APL (Aide Personnalisée au Logement).
The level of help depends on your income, type
of housing and rent paid. In case of shared property,
every tenant can benefit, but only his proportion
of the rent. Each individual must apply separately.
For more information, refer to the CAF website:
www.caf.fr where you can find information, application
forms and a listing of documents to submit with your
application.

Insurance
During your stay in France, you might be required
to show proof of subscription to one or several types
of insurance such as liability insurance, housing
insurance or health insurance.
Civil liability insurance
(assurance responsabilité civile)
If you unintentionally caused damage to another
person or his/her property, your insurance agency
will deal with the claim (this insurance is required
to use or borrow certain equipment at HEAR)
Housing insurance (assurance logement)
By subscribing to this insurance, the apartment
or room you rent and your possessions are covered
against the risks of flood/fire damage or against
burglary. This insurance often includes civil liability
insurance but do check before subscribing.
See below contact and addresses for LMDE
and MGEL agencies in Strasbourg and Mulhouse.
Health insurance
Health insurance is a complex but essential point you will need to review before coming to France.
Exchange students
As an exchange student, you are not required to register
to French social security, but you must bring one of the
3 documents below:
• a European health insurance card (only students from
EU/EEA). This card should be requested at your local
health services agency in your home country. If you
pay for healthcare services in France, this card will
enable you to forward your requests for reimbursements to your health agency in your country.
• or a SE401-Q-104 form issued by the Régie
d’Assurance Maladie du Québec (only students
from Quebec).
• or a certificate of private insurance providing full
coverage for medical risks, without restrictions related to cost, valid for the duration of the stay in France.
Regular students
If you don't have one of the 3 elements above
or if you are a regular student, you need to suscribe
to French social security: French Social Security (sécurité sociale or sécu) is the state institution providing
financial assistance to one’s healthcare expenses.
As an exchange student, you have the right to suscribe
to the student social security scheme*.
The subscription for the academic year 2015-16
costs 215€ or 52€ per month.
*If you are over 28 years old you cannot subscribe
to student social security scheme, please enquire
about the general social security scheme at the Caisse
Primaire d’Assurance Maladie (CPAM) in Strasbourg
or Mulhouse
Social security works with reimbursement rates which
allow from 15 to 70% of the total medical service fees
to be reimbursed to the beneficiaries.
If you subscribe, you will be given a carte vitale that
should be presented during visits to all healthcare
professionals: doctors, medical specialists, hospitals,
clinics, pharmacies. This card allows quick reimbursements of 15 to 70% of your healthcare expenses, and
an additional 30% for those who have subscribed
to top-up/complementary insurance.
37
Top-up/complementary insurance
Social Security only reimburses part of your healthcare
expenses. The top-up/complementary insurance
(mutuelle) will cover all or part of the difference
between the medical service fee and the French social
security reimbursement rate.
In Strasbourg and Mulhouse there are two student
health insurance agencies, LMDE and MGEL, for more
information please see below:

scheme, please go to the CPAM (Caisse primaire Assurance Maladie) for regular social security subscription.
CPAM - Mulhouse
26 Avenue Robert Schuman, 68100 Mulhouse
CPAM - Srasbourg
6 Rue de Lausanne, 67090 Strasbourg
Social security generally covers 15% to 80% of the
most common healthcare expenses. In order to have
a Social security number assigned to you, you must
provide these documents: copy of passport, copy
of visa or residence permit, copy of birth certificate.
You will then be able to use the Carte Vitale (French
health insurance card) to claim back your healthcare
expenses.
Note: The social security number is also required
when signing an employment contract to cover
you from injuries at work.
Supplemental health insurance plan (Mutuelle)
Social Security only refunds part of your healthcare
expenses. A mutuelle refunds all or part of the difference between the rate charged by the doctor and the
French social security refund.
For more information, please check:
www.lmde.com • www.mgel.fr • www.mgen.fr
Healthcare
Regardless on whether you are insured in France or in
your home country, you are generally required to pay
medical expenses as they occur: when visiting a doctor,
buying prescribed medicines or for medical tests. Then
you can ask to be reimbursed by your health insurer.
A general doctor may charge from 20€ to 25€ for a
consultation.

Student jobs in France
Students from the European Union and the European
Economic Area (EEA), Andorra, Monaco and Switzerland
have the right to work in France during the course of
their studies and do not need a work permit.
The temporary residence permit entitles foreign
students to a right to work in France. Students with a
long-stay visa benefit of the same rights throughout the
period of validity of their visa.
At least 2 days before the first day of work, the employer will have to write a declaration of employment in
the Strasbourg or Mulhouse Prefecture office, and join a
copy of your ID card, your residency permit or visa, and
the employment contract stating the dates of beginning
and end of work period and the amount of work hours.
The volume of work is limited to approx. 964 hours per
year (please check with the Prefecture).
Internship in France
A student internship is not classified as employment
and doesn’t require a permit. However, an internship
agreement (convention de stage) is required. This
agreement between the student, the company and
HEAR defines the type of work, training and conditions
(hours, place of work, allowances).
If you are registered as regular student at HEAR you can
ask for an Internship Agreement in the Academic Affairs
Office. As an exchange student, you will have to ask
your home university to issue the Internship agreement.
The International Office at HEAR can help in drafting the
document. You can also check with your home university for internship possibilities within the ERASMUS+
program. You can consult internship offers
on the school’s information board.
