The academy dates back to Wuchang Fine Arts School (Шаблон:Zh), which was founded in 1920 by Jiang Lanpu, Tang Yijing and Xu Ziheng. In 1923, it was renamed Wuchang Specialised School of Fine Arts(Шаблон:Zh) and became one of the three oldest art academies in modern China. In 1930, it was renamed Private Wuchang College of Arts (Шаблон:Zh). In the mid-1930s, the college reached the heyday in terms of size, talent training and academic achievements, and became one of the most important art education bases in China. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, Wuchang College of Arts moved to Jiangjin, Sichuan Province in 1938 and returned to Wuhan after the victory. Despite the great difficulties during the anti-Japanese war, the college reached its another peak of development. The college made tremendous contributions to the establishment and development of the modern art education in China and laid the solid foundation for the art education in PRC. After the founding of PRC in 1949, Wu Chang College of Fine Arts was merged into Central Plains University (Шаблон:Zh), Hubei Education College (Шаблон:Zh) and Central China Normal College (Шаблон:Zh) successively. In 1977, it developed into an independent college——Hubei Art Academy (Шаблон:Zh), which consisted of the Fine Arts Division and the Music Division. In 1985, with the approval of the then State Education Commission, the Fine Arts Division of Hubei Art Academy became Hubei Institute of Fine Arts, shaping the new setup of higher education of fine arts in contemporary China and opening the new chapter of development in the history of the academy.
