Explore This Amazing WorkNova Heater
Heating Nova is a heating radiator unit mostly built from titanium and aluminum. The surface of the heater constantly interacts with the growing heat from the bottom and dramatically marks and records itself with traces or patterns of the expanding heat on the outer surface of the heater as time passes. This marriage between its functional element and the material’s features creates a dramatic juxtaposition of the object, which is about oneness of the object, creating a perfection of a functional identity by beautifully linking its function and the object’s features.

The Manila Bulletin called the school "China’s most prestigious and renowned art academy".[1] It was founded in April, 1950, as a result of merger between National Art School in Beiping (国立北平艺术专科学校) and the department of fine arts at third campus of North China University.

The history of "National Art School in Beiping" might date back to the founding of "National School of Fine Arts in Beijing" in 1918, advocated by the notable educator, Cai Yuanpei. It was the first national school of fine arts in Chinese history, and also the beginning of Chinese modern education of fine arts. The former principals of CAFA include Xu Beihong, Jiang Feng, Wu Zuoren, Gu Yuan and Jin Shangyi. Current president is the painter and historian of fine arts, Prof. Pan Gongkai.
