ISA ARTS

爱莎国际艺术中心

The ISA International Art Centre, established by the ISA International Education Group and ISA Liwan School, focuses on integrating professional international art resources. It brings together internationally renowned art school returnee mentors, overseas working professors, famous artists, and designers, providing a pathway for students who aspire to pursue international art professions. The center aims to cultivate artists and designers with a global perspective and international competitiveness, encouraging them to develop their artistic potential.

Unlike traditional art education, to meet the diverse needs of the students with regard to further education, throught the ISA Wenhua Liwan International Art Programme (G9-G12) at ISA Liwan, we offer A Level courses, AP courses, and domestic CNC courses. These are combined with the Cambridge Assessment International Education A Level programme and the Pearson Edexcel International A Level and BTEC International Art Preparatory Diploma programs, authorized by the Pearson Education Group

The ISA International Education Group was founded by experienced education experts from top international education conglomerates worldwide, who are dedicated to providing a multicultural campus environment and a platform for Sino-Western cultural exchange for students, parents, and teachers from various countries. By leveraging ISA’s rich resources, students have an opportunity to interact with artists and students from around the world, thus broadening their horizons and enhancing their international competence. Additionally, ISA provides students with a platform for external showcases (such as art exhibitions, ISA Day, etc.), giving them an opportunity to display their artistic creations and cultivate their confidence and skills related to expressing themselves.

We are committed to providing an internationally-inspired educational environment that emphasizes the integration of "Academics and Arts". The curriculum framework of the ISA Wenhua Liwan International Art Programme comprises three main components: "Academic Courses, English Language Courses, and Arts and Design Courses". Within ISA's multicultural context, we advocate for students to engage in multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary learning. Our courses are conducted in small classes and offer intriguing interdisciplinary Studio projects. Through a multi-dimensional and interactive, blended teaching approach, we aim to cultivate students who not only excel in the field of arts but also possess knowledge and cultural literacy in other disciplines. This approach showcases the students' comprehensive abilities and nurtures globally competent talents with diverse skill sets.

Overseas experts are involved in the development and teaching of the curriculum, ensuring real-time awareness of the changes in the institutional requirements and facilitating the continuous iteration and updating the courses. Additionally, all mentors have graduated from top art schools abroad and possess extensive frontline teaching experience.

ISA Liwan adheres to the principle of "learner-centered" campus development, blending technology and humanities seamlessly. Constructed according to the rigorous American WELL standards for building and materials selection, ISA Liwan is dedicated to providing a green, safe, and environmentally-friendly learning environment for all members of faculty and students.

The school's design and facilities adhere to the world-class standards, featuring state-of-the-art physics, chemistry, and biology laboratories, an 800-seat international auditorium, a 400-meter Olympic-standard grass sports field, temperature-controlled swimming pools for both children and adults, a STEAM center, a library that can accommodate 50,000 books, a black box theater dedicated to British-style drama training and performances, and multiple competition-grade sports facilities, including basketball courts, tennis courts, volleyball courts, and more.

We also aim to provide our students with a high-quality artistic learning environment. For visual arts students, we provide six major art studios, including professional painting studios, fashion design studios, visual communication design studios, Architecture & Interior design studios, Industrial & Products design studios, and film & animation studios, each of which is fully equipped with professional teaching facilities and equipment.

We can cater to diverse professional development plans for our students. Additionally, we emphasize the close connection between students and society, allowing them to gain firsthand experience and reflect on how their professional knowledge meets the real societal needs through engaging in practical projects. Through completing these projects, the students are able to explore and reflect on the dynamic relationship that exist between their profession and industry. This approach encourages students to consider in-depth the professionalism, creativity, and internationalization of their work during the creative process.

Students' humanistic care is fostered through various programs and initiatives, such as the boarding services, mentorship programs, parent-school communication, psychological counseling, and academic support. We adhere to a growth-oriented education approach, encouraging students continually to explore the world around them. We aim to cultivate a positive, inclusive school culture and create an educational environment that is filled with warmth.

Through offering this diverse curriculum system and personalized education planning, we aim to help the students to develop their artistic thinking, identify their uniqueness, and enhance their core competitiveness. By offering multidimensional support, we strive to increase the students' chances of gaining admission to top-tier institutions and fostering globally competent talents with a comprehensive understanding of the world. To date, we have successfully helped students to apply to numerous world-renowned art schools and global university-level art colleges, securing significant scholarships along the way.
