Overview
The École Nationale Supérieure d’Art de Dijon is the oldest of the seven national regional schools of higher education in art. Dating from painter François Devosges’ artist’s studio founded in 1765, it has known how to develop both its local implantation and its national and international influence. Settled partly in the 18th century Episcopal palace, right in the heart of the historical part of Dijon and only 1h40 away from Paris by TGV, the school benefits from a unique geographical situation enhanced by the opening of the Eastern railway link of the High Speed TGV line between Rhine and Rhône. The creation of the Greater East network of art schools (Besançon, Chalon-sur-Saône, Dijon, Épinal/Metz, Mulhouse/Strasbourg, Nancy, Reims) strengthens opportunities for mobility and exchanges and trans-borders communication with Germany and Switzerland.
