Figura is a unique classical art academy in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. We offer the Complete Sculpture Program, the Evening Sculpture Program, Workshops, and organize many events throughout the year.

What we offer

The School

Figura’s approach is derived from a long lineage of classical sculpture education, which emphasizes observation and craftsmanship.

Students work primarily from live models, learning to sculpt the human figure from a structural, gestural and anatomical standpoint.

Our instructors

All of our teachers are practicing artists with extensive experience in the field of figurative sculpture, who have previously trained in classical Fine Art Academies.

During our courses you receive personalized feedback, critiques, and guidance to help you grow as a sculptor.
