6. art institute of chicago

The most important art school in Chicago has a high status in the United States.

University history: Modernism was stifled in Europe because fascism came to power and a large number of modernist masters moved to the United States. The main teacher and a large number of students from Bauhaus, the German modernist art education center, came to the United States.

Many fine arts colleges in the United States began to offer new courses to reform the traditional teaching of sketch, still life and human body. The most incisive example is * art institute of chicago * by Laszlo, the backbone of Bauhaus, 1938. Mohori The college built by Najib fully implemented the Bauhaus system, which completely changed the past art education mode in Chicago.

It can hire experts from orchestras and opera houses to take part-time jobs to ensure that the best musicians in the world are teachers. However, no city in the United States has such an authoritative position in art and design, and there is no leading and unique higher education institution in China. The so-called excellent art colleges are only in terms of a certain major.
