Ensemble - Abstract
This article considers new monuments, memorials and monumental sculptures which appeared in the first quarter of the 21st century in Nizhny Novgorod. Describing the volumetric composition of a monument, the author is focusing on its role in the formation of public spaces. Depending on their town-planning place in the city historic-architectural environment, the monuments are typologized as follows: on a square, in a park, in the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin, in the open area of the Strelka. The author concludes that the monument plays the role of an organizing principle in the public space in which it is located, as well as the role of a binding, synthesizing element for individual fragments of the urban environment. The article is accompanied by the author's photos.
