Letter Writing
Motivational Letter for an Art School
Hello,
I would like to ask someone to make corrections to my motivation letter. I need it for my Erasmus application to an Italian university. Advices, how to improve it, are welcome. Thank you very much in advance.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to apply as an exchange student for the Sculpture program at the XXX for two semesters in 2010/11 academic year. I am currently attending my fourth semester of Sculpture program at the YYY in Z-city, W-country.
I have a great passion for sculpture. In my view, there is nothing quite as extraordinary as the rhythms, forms, and patterns found in the spatialized expressions. Altough I am interested in the conceptual dimension of art. I also must state that working in situ is really appeals to me. I strive to contextualise my school projects considering visually and spatially relating to its situation and the area. I have read countless books and articles about sculpture and the art history, and I have visited foremost art museums and exhibitions in my country and some European cities that I have been to.
I know that the experience of studying abroad will help me to develop myself and to improve my knowledge. The Erasmus program seems like the perfect opportunity to meet other cultures, learn another language, experience other educational system and enrich my curriculum vitae, as well as gain more independence.
It has been my ambition to study at the XXX since I visited Florence last summer. I am impressed by everything about the city. I had spent my days walking gaily along the streets of the birthplace of the Renaissance. I felt like I'm touching the history, I was surrounded by art in every step I took. And looking world through the Arno was kind of miracle to me. So I strongly want to take this chance to live in my dream city.
I am presently learning Italian at ‘Istituto Italiano di Cultura' in Z-city. I am very delighted to find the opportunity to spend one year at one of the foremost and the oldest fine art institutions in Europe. I can say that I look forward to join the XXX in order to prove my abilities and gain new skills and I will be patiently waiting for a positive reply.
Yours faithfully,

You have no idea to whom the application will initially go? Well, I think I'd choose the program coordinator as the one closest to the selection process.
