The Jiao Ban Shan International Sculptural Park is the first international sculptural park in Taiwan created by twelve world widely renowned artists, invited by Mr. Wu Shien-san and the French organizer Mr. Gérald Xurigera. In recent years, Taiwan's government has promoted proactively the development of international tourism and local industries. This study believes that cohering mortal's recognitions and employing endemic characteristics may expand tourism resources effectively and improve the life quality in local areas. Therefore, it is hoped that via the study of Genius Loci of public art in Jiao Ban Shan International Sculptural Park and the exploration of the relation between 'mortals, objects, space', we can better understand and exercise endemic characteristics. This study is mainly focused on (1) exploring the traits of Genius Loci of international public art, (2) analyzing the cognition of public art area, (3) making a survey on the style and preference toward pubic artwork, and (4) delineating the connotation of Genius Loci of international public art. This study adopted factor analysis, survey research and in-depth interview from the aspects of natural and human cultural environments in terms of four facets of 'sky, earth, mortals, and divinities' to explore the relation between the environment and public artworks. The study results indicate that the traits of Genius Loci factor cover a base of fusion, a characteristic of style, and the site of identification. In general, the survey showed a wide gap between the age groups of 10~19 year old and 40~49 year old subjects. Overall, the artworks of 'Art as Tree/Tree as Art' was most meaningful in four dimensions of meaning, style, impressions and preferences. The feature connotations required for Genius Loci should include the coherence of natural environment, the merge of cultural meaning, the mindsets of local history, and the extension of social and educational function. By doing so, not only can Taiwan enter the international public art creativity domain, but we can also bring in more possibilities for the sustainable development of endemic culture in the future by conveying the Genius Loci of public art. |
