Abstract:

Public spaces, which are considered public spaces, are places that allow art to reach all people. In addition to the galleries and museums, these spaces located in the outside area are the efforts aimed at improving the visual perceptions of all individuals in the context of these art practices they encounter in the daily lives of the audience. In this sense, the works of art in public spaces, in addition to the participation of the viewers and the interactive structures in which the work itself can be transformed/changed, also defines a subjective process in which the artistic-visitor and artistic work union is intense. The purpose of this research is to provide artistic-visitor and space-related information to the public and to reveal the art practices performed in this field by examining the works of Alexander Calder, Vahit Tuna, Banksy, Louise Bourgeois and Andy Goldsworthy in particular. The work was done with the visual method and the scan model. In the findings obtained, the artists are seen in interdisciplinary interactions using visual objects that formally attract the attention of people, where they are putting the messages they want to transmit to the topics they are sensitive to the art practices in the public area. In the context of art practices in the public area, various art areas such as statue, placement (installation), wall painting, word art, performance are attracted. The works of art studied in the special work were selected with the attention to the creation of examples of different art forms and in this framework the art practices in the public area were presented with different visual art forms.
