History
The fine arts program of the ISI Yogyakarta has its roots in the Indonesian Academy of Fine Arts (Akademi Seni Rupa Indonesia; ASRI) which was established by governmental decree on December 15, 1949 and inaugurated on January 15, 1950. This fine arts school was re-named the Indonesian College of Fine Arts (Sekolah Tinggi Seni Rupa Indonesia; known as STSRI); although its former name was still often used by the public.
The music program of the ISI Yogyakarta has its beginnings in the Indonesian Music School (Sekolah Musik Indonesia; known as SMI) which was established in 1952. The SMI became the Indonesian Academy of Music (Akademi Musik Indonesia; known as AMI) in 1961.
The origins of the dance program at the ISI Yogyakarta began with the Indonesian Dance Conservatory (Konservatori Tari Indonesia; KONRI) which was founded in 1961. This organization became the Indonesian Dance Academy (Akademi Seni Tari Indonesia; known as ASTI) in 1963.[2]
The ISI Yogyakarta was founded on 23 July 1984 with the merger of the STSRI, the AMI, and the ASTI.
