On our site there is a huge number of models of busts and statues, including in the antique style.
In this article we decided to talk a little about whether such decorative elements are appropriate now, in what interiors and in what styles, how to modernize works of antique art and how to make them on CNC machines.
Busts and statues antique, relevance in modern interiors:
Strange as it may seem, it is the antique busts and statues that are now at the peak of popularity. They are in high demand. And often decorate modern interiors.
This is due to the fact that it is antiquity was the time when statues and busts appeared and received the widest distribution.
Until now, artists and sculptors learn from the samples of ancient Greek and ancient Roman art. Statues and busts in the ancient style are canonical. They demonstrate the beauty and proportionality of the human face and body. Therefore, they remain the standard of art.
Most often in bronze, plaster, stone were sculptural images of ancient Greek philosophers, thinkers, writers, or rulers, as well as images of gods and goddesses known to us from the myths of ancient Greece.
Statues and busts in antique style in modern interiors create a very interesting contrast. But at the same time remain a symbol of beauty, taste, eternal classics.
In what styles are found?
Antique busts and sculptures look organically in many classical interiors, although not in all. It is most appropriate to decorate with them an interior made in the style of classicism or neoclassic. Bust of David or a statue of Venus will complement such an interior, emphasize its style, logically fit into the surrounding space.
However, these are not the only styles in which today it is worth placing busts and statues made in the antique style.
In many modern design directions, this decor looks no less interesting, although somewhat contrasting.
For example, in interiors made in the style of loft, minimalism, scandi, eclecticism, industrial and many other modern trends.
Modern finishes, everyday objects of big cities, minimalist decor and a statue or bust of an ancient deity, philosopher, ruler.
A very interesting effect is created. Unexpected, but bright accent. Emphasizes taste and loyalty to the classics, but combined with courage, with modern solutions.
How to "soften" the decorative element?
There are techniques that will make a classic bust or statue more modern, to some extent, "soften" their strictness and exemplary, a little reset the spirit of classics and antiquity.
There are several variants:
- Combination of functionality. If the bust or statue, made in the antique style, at the same time will be another functional object, the product immediately becomes more modern. For example, a bust can serve as a stand, a vase, a cachepot for flowers, a jewelry box and so on. And a statue can become a coat rack.
- Decorating with a modern element. Dress up Venus in a dress. And David on the neck add an ultra-trendy bow tie. And now the statue or bust looks not so strict and canonical.
- Adding color. Finished bust or statue is fashionable to fully or partially repaint. Antique style will be guessed by facial features, articles of clothing, curly hair, laurel wreaths of characters. But a different color, not white, will be completely confusing.
- Change the material. What if the statue or bust will be, for example, completely made of wood? Such a solution will become as unusual as a change of color. And will change the "mood" of the antique work of art, modernize it.
Manufacturing of antique statues and busts:
Today, wide opportunities are provided by CNC machines.
They allow you to make products of any complexity, any shape.
Most five-axis machines allow you to create real works of art. Fully three-dimensional statues and busts, or molds for casting statues.
The use of CNC machines allows you to get, really, complex products in the shortest possible time. There will be no need for manual work, molding of products. All facial features, clothing elements are programmed in 3D models.
The task of the CNC operator is to monitor the work of the equipment.
Errors, inaccuracies are excluded.
It is easier to establish the production of serial products.
The material can be any - wood, stone, metal, plastic, plexiglass.
Easily change and formats.
Order 3d models in this case you can from us.
There are both ready-made options, and the possibility of ordering a model according to your sketches and specifications.
