中央美术学院的前身是民国第一所国立的专门美术学校——北京美术学校。郑锦是创始人,首任校长七年,此期是该校稳步发展和规范化的阶段。后来,因为时局艰难以及与部分教职员的矛盾,导致学生爆发长达一年半的“驱逐校长”的学潮运动,最终郑锦被迫辞职。半年后,该校也被教育部勒令停办。 The predecessor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts was the first national art school in the Republic of China - Beijing Fine Arts School. Cheng Jin is the founder, the first president for seven years, this period is the school’s steady development and standardization stage. Later, because of the current situation and the contradictions with some staff, the students broke out a year-and-a-half student movement called “deportation of principal” and eventually Zheng Jin was forced to resign. Six months later, the school was ordered to stop the Ministry of Education.
