Features: "The National School of Fine Arts in Paris, France, is a world-renowned art institution. It holds a special place for us, not only because it has nurtured many famous Chinese artists since the last century, in addition to Xu Beihong and Lin Fengmian mentioned in this book, such as Chang Yu, Pan Yuliang, Chang Shuhong, Wu Guanzhong, Zhao Yuanji, and many other art students in the past two decades. To develop China's modern art education, it is crucial to learn from the experiences of successful art academies worldwide. The author of this book introduces the teaching, management, and other aspects of this globally focused institution through personal experiences and as comprehensive and systematic relevant materials as possible. Especially the combination of teaching philosophy and creative management methods suitable for the characteristics of art education holds significant meaning for us to explore the development path of our own art education. The author majored in French during his undergraduate studies and entered the field of fine arts after coming to France, possessing an unparalleled advantage in language compared to other art students. Coupled with his diligence and attention to detail, the insights and reflections he has accumulated, in addition to being rich in detail, also have a certain depth. He narrates in a conversational manner, touching on many issues that are difficult to reach through superficial art inspections. To date, this is probably the most direct and detailed report by a Chinese student who studied at the National School of Fine Arts in Paris about this renowned institution. Therefore, it becomes even more valuable."
