Features: The teaching of the Basic Art Education Department at the China Academy of Art has entered its third year. Under the leadership of President Xu Jiang's philosophy of a "solid foundation and broad vision," the Basic Art Education Department, in line with the overall approach of the Academy and the demands and goals of cultivating higher art talents in contemporary China, has constructed a common core curriculum for painting, printmaking, sculpture, comprehensive art, and new media systems based on the talent development strategy of "focusing on fundamentals and broadening expertise." Academically, it emphasizes the pursuit of truth and the exploration of knowledge. This book places emphasis on cultivating students' artistic modeling skills, aesthetic abilities, and fundamental literacy, as well as the simultaneous enhancement of theoretical knowledge and practical skills. It places greater importance on understanding the essence of things and expressing individuality in professional foundation studies. It focuses on the essence and avoids getting entangled in superficial techniques. Clarity in principles naturally leads to the appropriate expression. The mastery of knowledge and skills is merely a function, not the ultimate goal. This book selects outstanding works from first-year students at the China Academy of Art, reflecting not only the teaching requirements and standards of the Academy's foundational education but also showcasing the achievements of the students.
