Abstract

The article focuses on the integration of technical solutions into the sphere of art. The issue is that the art is attributed to the copyright, practically not using the full potential of industrial property and state protection of technical solutions. A patent is not only a legal document certifying priority and authorship, but the description to it is a full-fledged information resource that contains reliable information about the development. The article identifies the advantages and methodological grounds for using patent information in research activities, which can help reveal previously unknown features of the creativity of figures or art movements, for example, technologies for creating works of art in the field of sculpture, graphics and painting or Theremin prototypes. Based on the presented descriptions of inventions in music, painting, sculpture, for which protection documents were issued by the Russian Empire, the USSR and the Russian Federation, conclusions were drawn that patent information is a source of both cultural understanding of art and the creative process in creating new works of art.
