多元文化互动中的公共艺术

Public Art in Multi-cultural Inter-dynamo

我们从没有像今天这样关注周围的生存空间,从没有像今天这样关注我们的公共艺术。公共艺术作为艺术性的创造物,或多或少地保持着相对独立的精神品质,不会完全地受城市肌体中支配性的经济力量所支配。但是,由于它是属于城市公共事业的一部分,它又不得不接受政府部门,投资者、公众意志提出诸如功能性、思想性等要求。所以,从事公共艺术创作的艺术家很大程度上是在协调两者之间的关系。

We haven't focused on the surrounding existing space as well as our public art like today, Public art as the artistic creation, more or less keeping relatively independent spirit character, can't be completely controlled by controlling economic force in city organism. But because it belongs to urban public cause, it has to receive such demands as function, thought, etc of governmental departments, investors and public volition. Therefore, artists engaged in public an creation adjust the relations of the two to a great extent. China's social realistic features and trend of public traditional aesthetics have determined the special actuality of public art. The development state of China's contemporary public art has declared its outer and inner parts lack of a public existing space.What kinds of creation attitudes, works will, be supplied by artists to improve the qualities of urban lives? Paris model, New York model or natural model is infeasible.Those great sculpture and decorations transplanted from Europe and Africa will necessarily not stand time experience. Nationalization structure and re-constructed auspicious dragons and lucky creatures don't belong to us, including many big or small seasonable and occasional environmental art engineering, which also faces embarrassed place. We shouldn't be crazy about foreign things, or can't need 'fully Chinese' things, what we need is a spirit ,a spirit of mastering city history and cultural lifeline.How to use this spirit to adjust government, community, residents, parties, developers and investors together and to create a happy natural organic order of public life are vital.
