Exhibition "Secrets of Enamel"

About exhibition

The permanent exhibition "Secrets of Lysva Enamel" is organized on the principle of "open secrets." It brings together the themes "enamel as jewelry and fine art," "enamel and the art of propaganda and agitation," and "enamel as an industrial brand." Lysva enamel is an industrial and artistic brand of the Urals with a 111-year history. The exhibition presents samples of enameled tableware from the past 100 years produced at the Lysva factory. Part of the display is dedicated to the founder of Soviet enamel, Yevgeny Vladimirovich Kuklin. Works by the enamellers Afanasy Sokurov, Tamara Krechetova, Stepan and Elena Kolyupanov, and Lyudmila Nefedkina are included. The exhibition features an interactive enameling workshop where visitors can create a design on an enamel plate and fire it in a real muffle furnace.
