銅壁畫又叫(jiao)銅(tong)(tong)浮雕（又叫(jiao)鏨銅(tong)(tong)或(huo)敲(qiao)銅(tong)(tong)），是(shi)利用銅(tong)(tong)材(cai)料的(de)(de)延展(zhan)性興起來得鏨刻(ke)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)藝(yi)，是(shi)我國傳統手(shou)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)藝(yi)百花中的(de)(de)一枝奇葩。之中技術(shu)據今已有幾千年的(de)(de)歷史。 鍛銅(tong)(tong)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)藝(yi)品的(de)(de)造(zao)型(xing)，主要為平(ping)面的(de)(de)片(pian)活，片(pian)活是(shi)平(ping)裝在某些器物上(shang)或(huo)懸掛起來供人欣賞(shang)。鏨刻(ke)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)藝(yi)的(de)(de)操(cao)作，是(shi)在設計好(hao)器行或(huo)圖案后(hou)，按照(zhao)一定的(de)(de)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)藝(yi)流(liu)程，以特(te)制的(de)(de)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)具和特(te)定的(de)(de)技法(fa)，在金屬板上(shang)加(jia)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)出(chu)(chu)千變萬化的(de)(de)浮雕狀圖案。完成一件(jian)精(jing)美的(de)(de)鏨刻(ke)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)藝(yi)品需要十(shi)多道(dao)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)藝(yi)流(liu)程，加(jia)上(shang)技術(shu)工(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)(gong)人的(de)(de)格(ge)調(diao)創造(zao)，匠心獨運地打造(zao)出(chu)(chu)個(ge)性化，現代化的(de)(de)雕塑作品。 　

      鍛銅是一種區(qu)別于(yu)鑄銅的工(gong)藝(yi)(yi)，是在銅板上進(jin)行創作，利用銅板加熱后質地變軟，錘打后又(you)恢復堅硬的特性，重(zhong)復這(zhe)(zhe)一過程，最終制作出藝(yi)(yi)術作品或其(qi)它生活、工(gong)業用品。隨著人(ren)民(min)生活水平和審美情趣的提升，鍛銅這(zhe)(zhe)一傳統(tong)工(gong)藝(yi)(yi)尤其(qi)在工(gong)藝(yi)(yi)美術領域受到越來越多(duo)設計師和大眾(zhong)的喜愛。 　

      火、錘子和鏨子是鍛銅(tong)的三個重要元素。小型鍛銅(tong)工藝作品或大型浮(fu)雕局部加(jia)工可以采取(qu)氧氣(qi)加(jia)乙炔產生的高溫加(jia)熱(re)，大型作品就需要生爐(lu)火鼓風加(jia)熱(re)。加(jia)熱(re)這(zhe)一(yi)環節(jie)相對(dui)容易。加(jia)熱(re)后的銅(tong)板(ban)要用皮錘敲(qiao)打平(ping)整。
