銅雕(diao)，即以銅為(wei)材(cai)料進行(xing)雕(diao)刻的(de)工(gong)藝，主(zhu)要表現(xian)了造型、質(zhi)感、紋(wen)飾的(de)美。它的(de)藝術(shu)淵(yuan)源(yuan)可追溯至(zhi)夏商周的(de)青銅器。

   銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)雕(diao)分為(wei)兩類：一(yi)是銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)刻(ke)，即在平面銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)材(cai)上進(jin)行(xing)(xing)(xing)平面刻(ke)畫(hua)，題材(cai)有繪(hui)畫(hua)和(he)書法等也稱手(shou)工銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)版(ban)畫(hua);一(yi)是圓(yuan)銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)雕(diao)，是用(yong)銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)材(cai)進(jin)行(xing)(xing)(xing)立體雕(diao)鏤，題材(cai)有人物、動物、幾何圖形等。南(nan)京(jing)銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)雕(diao)以后者(zhe)為(wei)主。因為(wei)銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)的(de)硬度比較低(di)，銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)雕(diao)就是在原(yuan)料(liao)上進(jin)行(xing)(xing)(xing)雕(diao)刻(ke)。南(nan)京(jing)銅(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)(tong)雕(diao)在全國有著獨特的(de)地位，是國內唯一(yi)傳(chuan)(chuan)承這一(yi)傳(chuan)(chuan)統技藝的(de)地區(qu)，影(ying)響(xiang)極(ji)其廣泛(fan)。

  西安鍛銅浮雕其造型多成威嚴粗獷、端莊沉穩之態，表現出堅實渾厚、富麗輝煌的質感。銅雕的紋飾主要為饕餮紋，或以動物頭部造型，再以鳥、獸、蟲、魚部分形體組成抽象的圖案來襯托銅雕造型

  現代(dai)雕塑里，銅雕在(zai)裝(zhuang)飾物(wu)這(zhe)一塊所占(zhan)的(de)分量越來(lai)越重要。比起古(gu)老(lao)的(de)商周時代(dai)，其裝(zhuang)飾性占(zhan)首要作用。
