Abstract

We consider such a complex phenomenon in the modern applied graphics of Belarus as the schedule of workflow units (1991–2019). During this period, Belarusian forms of securities, documents, seals, etc. were analyzed mainly in the field of visual protection of documents. At the same time, high aesthetic qualities, as well as a number of unique properties of state applied graphics, as a result of a special synthesis of artistry and functionality, a combination of the possibilities of different types of creativity (graphics, typography, printing skills, engravings, prints, etc.) allow us to consider them from the perspective of art. It can be argued that today Belarusian documents, letterheads, seals, etc. formed as a complex phenomenon and acquired an individual artistic style. The ongoing search for new visual solutions, meanings and cultural concepts has formed a unique tradition for us to design works of state applied graphics in Belarus. An artistic analysis of the basic units of the state document flow was carried out, patterns of style-forming decisions of their visual images were revealed, periodization was developed and a classification of this cultural phenomenon was given. Based on the results obtained, a general classification scheme is presented for the works of state applied grahics of the Republic of Belarus (1991–2019).
