Короткий опис(реферат):
The article is dedicated to Ukrainian Art Nouveau architecture, which became a unique
phenomenon in the development of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century
architecture. Along with the reality that architecture in Ukraine evolved as a component
of the European artistic movement, a distinctive architectural style was formed,
based on the development of the traditions of folk architecture and ornamentation.
This style produced much innovation in the shaping, decor, and ornamentation of
buildings. Significant contributions to the development of architectural modernism in
Ukraine were made by Opanas Slastion, Vasyl Krychevskyi, Yevhen Serdiuk, Oleksandr
Verbytskyi, Serhii Tymoshenko, Oleksandr Lushpynskyi, Ivan Levynskyi, Dmytro
Diachenko, and others. Ukrainian Art Nouveau architecture was represented by five
main architectural styles: modernist, folkloric, rationalist, neo-baroque, and Vienna
Secession. Due to an attainment of the possibilities embodied in the constructions,
developed techniques, and in the design of interior space and external features — such
as walls, roofs, doors and windows, columns and balustrades — this style formed its own
expressive system, which included a significant number of socially significant types of
buildings (dwellings, schools, hospitals, warehouses, government buildings, places of
worship). The styles of Ukrainian architectural modernism have not exhausted their
potential and may yet have a continuation in contemporary architecture and that of
the future.
