追求复杂性:欧洲公共艺术文献综述

The Pursuit of Complexity:Public Art Literature in Europe

公共艺术不可避免地与它所处的社会、文化和政治背景有关,反过来,这些因素又使得公共艺术的理论和实践不断演变。尽管欧洲近期的公共艺术文献是一个亟待研究的巨大领域,但本文旨在介绍一些有影响力的出版物,这些出版物涉及了“公共空间”和“场所”等基本概念的范式转换,以及马克·欧杰提出的相反的“非场所”概念,他介绍了那些混合的、经媒体传播的、有介入的公共场所。近期的研究旨在克服那些长期占据主导地位的理论的影响,例如哈贝马斯的公共领域理论,强调在当今的公共艺术与多元化、新自由主义、意识形态、社会正义、非殖民化和传播之间构建起来的一种更为重要的关系。这些出版物将公共艺术理解为公共知识,看作是普罗大众,根据当前的国家和全球挑战来反思艺术和公众参与,反对公共空间标准化,以促进城市规划中的环境和社会生态发展,鼓励以复杂的方式创作公共艺术。

Public art is inevitably related to the social,cultural and political contexts in which it acts,that,in turn,affects the evolution of its theories and practices.Although the recent public art literature in Europe is a huge field to be investigated,this text aims at presenting some of the remarkable publications produced about paradigmatic shifting concerning fundamental notions such as public space and place and its negation of non-place by Marc Augéintroducing those of hybrid,mediatic and mediated public space.Recent works aim to overcome theories that have been dominant for a long time,such as the Habermasian theory of public sphere,underlining a more critical relationship of today’s public art with plurality,neoliberalism,ideology,social justice,decolonization and communication.The publications mentioned understand public art as a form of common knowledge and as commons,rethinking art and civic engagement according to the todays’national and global challenges,against the public space standardization to promote environmental and social ecologies in urban planning,encouraging a complex approach to public art.
