公众触摸话语权——谈公共艺术机制

Public Touch the Discourse Right ——On Public Art System

公共艺术的前提是公民社会公共艺术（Public Art）是一个舶来品，在西方没有比较统一的定义．在中国也众说纷纭。但是绝不应该将它简单地理解为在公共空间展现、供大众观看的艺术。因为如果这样理解．那么可以回溯到古代、上古时代．如希腊罗马的神庙艺术或广场雕塑．佛教、印度教的石窟艺术．甚至旧石器时代的洞穴壁画，都可以算作公共艺术．

The whole system of public art is established in the dialogue between governmental officials, artists, other experts and the public, reflecting a unity of art, academy and social judgment instead of personal will autarchy. How to treat the public shows not only a political position, but also a test to governmental administration competence. Friendly response to the public is the foundation of constructing a harmonious society.
