Visual art is an integral part of human life, which, like a mirror, reflects the lifestyle and capabilities of a generation. Moreover, each epoch contributes to the development of artistic expression techniques. In this article, we discuss three novel approaches to visual art and design from the point of view of modern photonics and laser technology. Laser methods of metal coloring are considered regarding their physical nature, and their ample opportunities for the creation of different artworks are demonstrated.
