-Interview with Tang Xiaohe, Dean of Hubei Academy of Fine Arts

Hubei Academy of Fine Arts, formerly known as Wuchang Art College, was founded in 1920 by Mr. Jiang Lanpu, Mr. Tang Yijing and Mr. Xu Ziheng who had participated in the Revolution of 1911. After the liberation of the whole country, it has undergone several adjustments in national institutions of higher learning. 1956 was named Wuhan Art Teachers College. 1958 merged with Central South Conservatory of Music to form Hubei Art Institute. 1985 In May, with the approval of Hubei Provincial People's Government, the Fine Arts Branch of Hubei Art Institute was established as Hubei Fine Arts Institute.

1994, Tang Xiaohe, who was in the heyday of painting, gave up the opportunity to specialize in artistic research and creation and became the president of Hubei Academy of Fine Arts. In these six or seven years, he didn't create a work, but at this stage, he aged faster than ever before, and his hair turned white in six years. People who know Tang Xiaohe say that this is due to his personality, because he has always regarded school education as an artistic creation, which is the greatest work in his life. Tang Xiaohe boldly reformed, constantly breaking old concepts and constraints, actively adapting to the needs of market economy, facing difficulties, striving to adjust and change the single mode of running schools, actively expanding the direction of professional services, expanding the ways of running schools, broadening the ideas of running schools, and enhancing the vitality of running schools. At the beginning of the new year, we interviewed Tang Xiaohe, the dean of the hospital and a famous painter. Tang Xiaohe believes that the Academy of Fine Arts should write the word "beauty" to meet the needs of society. Since the reform and opening up, the society has put forward new requirements for all kinds of fine arts professionals. Therefore, Hubei Academy of Fine Arts has implemented multi-level and multi-standard education on the basis of highlighting the characteristics of "beauty" and adjusted the professional structure of various departments in time. Specialties such as industrial product modeling design, environmental art design, fashion design, mural painting, watercolor painting, cartoon, photography and fine arts have been newly established. Strive to do a good job in highly educated education, and actively do a good job in awarding doctoral degrees in fine arts and applying for tutors (China's higher art education is in line with international standards, and it is customary to set up doctoral degrees only in art theory majors and master's degrees only in other majors). Through this adjustment, the short-board specialty of art education and arts and crafts urgently needed by the society has been highlighted, the construction of key disciplines has been ensured, and its own advantages and characteristics have been formed. It is in line with international art colleges and has the ability to compete with brother art colleges. The college expanded the original four departments to nine departments, namely Chinese painting, oil painting, printmaking, sculpture, design (decoration and industrial design), environmental art design, fashion design, art department, art education, and graduate department, adult education department, technical secondary school department and public course department.

Tang Xiaohe said: To this end, Hubei Academy of Fine Arts has continuously strengthened the construction of teaching staff. A group of outstanding art educators, academic backbones and academic leaders have been brought together, forming a team of art teachers with reasonable structure, strong strength and neat lineup. They not only trained a large number of outstanding artistic talents for the country, but also made outstanding achievements in scientific research and creation. Thousands of creative and design works have been selected to participate in cultural exchanges and exhibitions in the whole province, the whole country and the world, and hundreds of works have won awards at home and abroad, many of which are collected by art galleries at home and abroad. He also created and designed memorial sculptures and garden sculptures, large murals, architectural decoration and environmental art projects for the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, historical museums, memorial halls, famous scenic spots, large buildings, airports, factories and mines, enterprises and institutions around the world. Some teachers have also published many influential papers and art monographs, and the publishing department has also systematically published a collection of teachers' works in our college.

In order to meet the needs of society, Dean Tang Xiaohe also proposed that social practice courses should be included in the syllabus and teaching plan. Mainly in the class as a unit, several teams are formed, led by professional teachers to go to southwest, northwest, east China, central south and other regions for social practice. Every summer, the Student Affairs Office and the Youth League Committee also organize students to go to Jianli, Honghu Old District and Yichang Open City for social practice activities, which have been commended by Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China, the Ministry of Education and the Youth League Central Committee for many times. This is also an important course for students in our college and an important link in cultivating artistic talents. In order to strengthen the teaching experiment in the school, the school has set up an exhibition hall and teaching auxiliary workshops such as Chinese painting mounting, craft dyeing and weaving, garment sewing, plaster model copying and pottery making, so as to enhance students' practical ability.

Finally, Dean Tang happily told the reporter that the education reform has been deepened with talent training as the center. Not only has the quality of education in our college been continuously improved, but students' artistic creation has also entered an unprecedented period of prosperity, with remarkable achievements and fruitful results. According to incomplete statistics, 60 students have won gold, silver and bronze awards and various awards in national and provincial art design comprehensive exhibitions and various professional art works exhibitions at home and abroad. Among them, the national gold medal 1 piece, 4 silver medals and 4 bronze medals; 5 professional gold medals, 4 silver medals and 6 bronze medals; Other awards19; There are still many students who have achieved excellent artistic achievements during their school days. 1 person won the gold medal in the Paris Expo, and 1 person won the gold medal in the national watercolor painting exhibition and the Wu Zuoren Education Fund Award.
