ENAMEL PREPARATION AND TECHNOLOGY OF ART PRODUCTION

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to highlight the process of preparation and disclosure of the technology of making works of art in the technique of hot enamel, as the basis of enamel art. The process of development of artistic enamel in Ukraine in the first quarter of the XXI century was supplemented by technological innovations. On the basis of the experimental approach, the artists developed the latest technologies, which became the basis of new directions of artistic and plastic expression – easel, monumental and plastic forms, artistic relief enamel. Systematic and complex approaches, chemical-physical and technical-technological methods were used to reveal the purpose of the research. The application of technical and technological method of enamel art research allows to reveal the attributive properties of the work, to assess the quality of its performance, to supplement the results of art analysis by revealing the essence of hot enamel technique and its impact on the author's style. The scientific novelty of the obtained results lies in the formulation and development of a topical topic, which in the scientific dimension has received insufficient coverage. The combination of technological methods and academic art research methods creates a synergy of understanding the significance of enamel art. The study of the application of enamel technologies contributes to the disclosure of the process of development of enamel art. The technology of making a work of art in the technique of artistic hot enamel is a complex labor-intensive process that requires not only the creative inspiration of the artist, but also the knowledge, skills and competencies associated with the technology of making the work. Enameling technology is divided into four stages: preparation of the work under the enamel, application of enamel, firing of enamel and processing of the work. Technical conditions affect the possibility of realization of the figurative and stylistic idea of the author. The results of understanding the essence of the process of technology and methods of enamel works can serve as an important component of the study of modern problems of art history and the development of enamel art.

Key words: enamel art, technique, technology, hot enamel, cold enamel, artistic enamel.
