Abstract | "Public art" is a broad term that refers to art in public spaces and includes architecture, landscape, and urban design. Public art makes public spaces more beautiful, encourages us to pause and interact with our environment, or reminds us of important people and events. Just as often, public sculptures become such a part of our everyday experience that we overlook them altogether. However, when given a close, fresh look, these sculptures can be amazing teaching tools, and provide a great jumping-off point for discussions of history, math, science, and art. This instructional resources suggests ways to use public art as a teaching tool in the classroom. With each sculpture explored in this paper, discussion questions and activities are suggested as a means of stimulating thought about the following questions: (1) What are the symbols of a community's past, present, and future? (2) What are the different ways to interpret those symbols in works of art? (3) How does art stimulate our thinking and imagination? and (4) How do students interpret their own community? A concluding classroom activity for designing a public sculpture for the community is outlined. (Contains 2 endnotes.) (ERIC). |
