Modern Art Objects in the Residential Architectural Environment of St. Petersburg at the End of the 20th Century
Abstract: The article is devoted to the issues of changing the aesthetic component of the architectural environment of residential buildings in St. Petersburg at the end of the 20th century. The authors propose a brief typology of art objects that allows us to study the development of historically established areas from the point of view of the formation of accent points of attraction. In the modern environment of residential areas of St. Petersburg, the traditional way of creating art objects in the second half of the 20th century is preserved as small architectural forms of a certain functional nature – fountains, playgrounds, thematic sculptures. However, established trends in the design of art objects are not decisive for the modern development of the architectural environment. The work reveals the relevance of developing a new type of art objects based on increasing the importance of an integrated approach to the renovation of the urban landscape, built on the synthesis of design and architecture. The authors explore new possibilities for reorganizing the environment through wall painting and changing the nature of street sculpture. As an example of a new perception of art objects as a conceptual basis for changing the surrounding space, the article provides a description of the plastic environmental compositions of V. A. Votsky (Gavrilov).
Keywords: Art objects, residential development, architectural environment, design, sculpture, murals, small architectural forms, urban landscape.
