On March 25, 2017, the opening ceremony of Feng Hai’s World: Feng Hai Photography Exhibition and book launch of “Feng Hai’s Work 1998-2016” was held in the Academy’s art gallery. This exhibition was the fourth series of exhibitions planned by Professor Su Dan of the Academy of Arts & Design, and was another exhibition reviewing works of outstanding alumni of the Academy of Arts & Design of Tsinghua University (the former Central Academy of Craft Art). The previous three exhibitions in this series were “Engraved in the Heart: Chen Liu’s Watercolor Painting Exhibition”, “Deep in the Cloud: On the River·Gao Huijun’s Painting Exhibition”, and “Meet with the Land: Yu Huijian’s Painting Exhibition”. The Tsinghua academic group summarized and analyzed the modeling system of the Central Academy of Arts & Design within the vision of Chinese art history, and developed a complete network of China’s modern and contemporary art development, which provides references for the Academy to construct its future academic system.
