Can urban bronze sculptures be both “viewing” and “rewarding”?

Urban sculptures, either hidden in the tree-lined roads, or dotted in squares, bustling streets, or scattered in public spaces such as parks and green spaces, have enriched the spiritual and cultural life of the citizens while beautifying the city. In the International Copper Sculpture Art Park in Cuihu Park, a large number of bronze sculptures are concentrated. However, the fly in the ointment is that these bronze sculptures have little written explanations. When encountering abstract works, the viewers are often unpredictable. The lack of words "do not understand" has become a common reflection of the public.

The meaning of sculpture depends on guessing

Last weekend, Ms. Guo, who lives near Cuihu Park, took her daughter from elementary school to take a walk in the International Bronze Art Garden. “My daughter saw so many bronze sculptures in the park, I was particularly excited. I asked Dong to ask West. I didn’t expect this. I feel a little embarrassed.” Ms. Guo said that the bronze sculptures of different shapes in the garden attracted the attention of her daughter. The daughter pointed at a bronze sculpture and asked: “Mom, what does this sculpture mean?” Facing the current abstraction The bronze sculpture of the geometry, Ms. Guo suddenly said, "To tell the truth, this bronze sculpture is too abstract, I can't understand it, I can't answer it."

Ms. Guo said that the bronze sculptures in the park are somewhat imaged and easy to understand, but some are too abstract and lack of written explanation. The meaning of bronze sculpture can only be guessed. "I have seen some elementary school students come here to visit. The meaning of these bronze sculptures is not even understood by the adults, the children do not understand, and the children cannot just watch the fun."

Missing text description

On the afternoon of January 12, the reporter came to the International Bronze Art Garden, where the theme park of the city's bronze sculpture art was displayed. The number of bronze sculptures in the park is naturally many. The reporters strolled around the park and found that these bronze sculptures can be divided into "two factions" - "abstracts" and "images." Sitting alone by the lake, bowing down and contemplating; a group of children are playing the game of the eagle catching the chicken, which looks innocent; a cow stands on the square, showing the spirit of the "bovine" of the iron bones and the spirit of the gods. These bronze sculptures do not require any text, and you can see the meaning.

However, there are some abstract and incomprehensible bronze sculptures in the garden. These "abstract" bronze sculptures look like geometric figures, and the meaning is hard to guess. The reporter observed more than ten bronze sculptures, which were difficult to describe in words, and did not indicate the name of the bronze sculpture and the name of the author. The result is that the meaning of bronze sculpture can only be guessed, and the interpretation given by the public by intuition may be far from the original intention of the work.

“What does this bronze sculpture mean?” The two citizens stood before a mother holding a bronze sculpture of a child. “This bronze sculpture should reflect maternal love. Before the disaster, the mother used her body to protect the child.” “But I I think this should be just a simple mother holding a sleeping sculpture of a child."

Why not add a sign

Sculpture, for a city, in addition to playing a part of the landscape function, there is also the connotation and meaning of its design. In the interview, some citizens believe that urban sculpture is around people. However, if the cultural communication function carried by it is difficult to play due to lack of text introduction, this may cause regret and waste.

"A sculpture often condenses the designer's unique ingenuity, carries a rich connotation, represents the image and taste of the city, and should be allowed to play a role of education, rather than a display." Retired teacher Du Lao believes that sculpture Not only must we be able to "view" but also "reward". At present, the text description is still an important medium for the public to understand the sculpture works. Relevant units can add a text introductory sign next to the sculpture, labeling the name, time, connotation, etc. information.

A college student Zhou said that the relevant units may be able to carry out an activity for the name of the sculpture and mobilize the citizens to participate in it, which not only gave the sculpture a name, but also improved the citizens' deep understanding of the sculpture culture.
