| Summary: | Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to study the main cultural approaches to the process of designing small architectural forms made of metal.Materials and methods. They are determined by the set goals and objectives. Methods of comparative (diachronic and synchronous) analysis, various methods of observation of modern cultural processes and phenomena were used. During the work on the paper, a significant amount of empirical data was analyzed, including the work of contemporary metal artists.Results. Understanding cultural processes and phenomena will allow to develop modern design of small architectural forms made of metal, to use the ideas of the paper in the educational and creative process. Art metal, one of its three main directions — architectural metal, small architectural forms occupy an important place in the formation of a single value-semantic architectural landscape of a modern city. The redundancy of space and time inherent in our present leads to an increase in the number of “non-places” (where there is no place for an individual) in the urban landscape. The space of “No place” is undefinable — neither through identity, nor through communication, nor through historical parallels. Small architectural forms (SAF) help to master “non-places” artistically (meaningfully), turn them into “places” of power, and fill the landscape with meaning. Development of “non-places” by means of designing SAF made of metal becomes an important task for a modern author.Conclusions. Further development of the design of small architectural forms in the XXI century, as well as culture in general, is associated with increasing mobility, built-up communication system and developed information field. Art metal, as one of the most ancient occupations of mankind, preserves invaluable heritage and experience of the past, and within the framework of modern art culture initiates the creation of innovations based on new materials and approaches, contributing to the development of creative thinking and creative freedom. |
