definition of public space in order to further explore certain activities that take place within this sphere. According to Mehta (2014), a definition of public space that focuses on the access and use of space, defines this space as “publicly accessible places where people go for group or individual activities” (p. 54). Thus, these are spaces that contain a variety of different uses and for the purpose of this paper one particular use that explores public space in an alternative way is public art festivals

Coincidentally, works of public art may not be successful in spreading the messages of their creators. Ronald Lee Fleming and Melissa Tapper Goldman, in Public Art for the Public, discuss the possibility that “works that may gain critical renown in a gallery or sculpture park might be ridiculed in public” (Fleming and Goldman). There are however factors that have been known to influence not only how the public perceives public art, but also how the perception influences whether

Throughout history there have been many public funding’s that contributed to the world of art. Whether anyone realizes it or not, artists have a lot of responsibilities to try and please the public when they are working for the public. Also, there are numerous regional issues that greatly influence decisions about publicly funded art. Art is very important when forming a sense of nation character, therefore, we should support the public funding of art in America. Art is an important part of society and

Public art is where the artwork is put in public spaces for the audience to see and appreciate. Some private art galleries are costly and some people are not able to afford it. So, by having public art in public space allows people to view for free. It is also easily accessible to all types of audience. The audience who views public art can be people from different age group, gender, ethnicity, belief, and class. “Placemaking is like homemaking”(Kelly).

Page 1 description response to public art Art is undefined. There are no rules and no boundaries to art. Art is whatever you want it to be. The beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It seems like today, art is everywhere. Someone is trying to express how they feel or trying to persuade people to their cause or efforts.

I believe that as long as what has been created is meaningful to either the creator or even to somebody that is viewing it, it should be considered art.

What is art? The answer to that has been debated for thousands of years. The definition of art is too broad a topic to discuss in just a few words. Public art, though also varying wildly from piece to piece, can be defined more easily.
