Josai Forms Agreement with Luxun Academy of Fine Arts

On October 22nd, a Josai University Educational Corporation delegation led by Chancellor Mizuta Noriko paid a visit to the Luxun Academy of Fine Arts (LAFA) where they formed an academic exchange agreement.

Founded in 1938, LAFA is one of China’s premier art academies with eleven different departments in such fields as Chinese painting, woodblock prints, oil painting, and sculpture.

Upon their visit, the delegation was first offered a tour of the campus and art gallery premises, including the special galleries that house the art gallery’s most treasured works where art gallery director Ji Yunhui, Ph.D. provided his personal explanation to the group. This was followed by a signing ceremony attended by Chancellor Mizuta and Advisor Murai Takashi from Josai Educational Corporation and Art gallery Director Ji Yunhui, Ph.D. and Prof. Li Guangjin, among others, where the two schools finalized their academic exchange agreement. Afterwards, the participants discussed the potential of this agreement, starting with the cultivation of art scholars and curators.

Both Josai and LAFA are expecting great things to come of this most recent academic exchange agreement.
