Founded in 1928 and located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, the China Academy of Art (CAA) was the first art academy in China to offer a comprehensive range of academic programs. The Academy is jointly administered by the Zhejiang Provincial Government, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. It offers 28 undergraduate programs, with 26 designated as National First-Class Undergraduate Program Construction Sites and two as Zhejiang Provincial First-Class sites.
CAA has over 10,000 students and about 1,000 faculty and staff. It comprises four campuses in Hangzhou—Nanshan, Xiangshan, Liangzhu, and Xianghu—and one in Zhangjiang, Shanghai.
Over the past century, despite changes in name and location, the Academy has stood at the forefront of the arts—maturing through early challenges and achieving remarkable accomplishments recognized both at home and abroad. Committed to revitalizing Chinese art and engaging with the world, CAA has exerted a profound influence on the development of modern and contemporary art in China.
