Abstract |
The author determines that violin performance finds its vivid embodiment and implementation in Russian and foreign architecture and sculpture. It is scientifically substantiated that modern architects have created a huge number of works of art in which violin is the main object. The study proves that world architects involve this bowed string instrument in global projects to provide a new picture of the world, demonstrating the ability of the violin to implement unprecedented cultural experiments. Thus, the author comes to the conclusion that violin art is becoming more and more visual. Each of the architects analyzed in this work tried in every possible way to embody in monuments and sculptures exactly that feature of violin art that they wanted to express, as well as to perpetuate the issues and contradictions that turned out to be the most relevant and topical. In terms of architectural and musical art, the sculptors sought to demonstrate various hypostases of violin art starting from the tragic and patriotic themes. The paper established that at present one needs to talk about the conceptual nature of violin visualization, its polyfunctionality, as well as the global synthesis of musical art with architecture and sculpture. |
