Public Art Design in the Urban Memorial Plaza Under Cultural Inheritance

摘要

This paper takes public artwork design as the main body to study how public art in the urban memorial plaza reflects the memorial significance, and at the same time serves as the carrier of urban cultural inheritance and development. The public art design is set when the original site reflects the memorial significance of the Tangshan earthquake, which is very monotonous to give people an excessive sense of coldness and distance. At the same time, the original site does not establish facilities for the bereaved families to pay tribute to the late and express their grief, and there are no records to focus on the occurrence time of the Tangshan Earthquake. The pertinence and utilization rate of site is low respectively and the memorial significance is not clear enough. In order to improve the utilization rate of the site, the author refers to the design methods of public art in many memorial plazas at home and abroad, and then sets up public artworks based on cultural inheritance in the site. It is hoped that they can not only display the memorial significance of the victims in the Tangshan Earthquake but also provide a public art facility for the bereaved families to pay tribute to the late and express their grief. At the same time, some digital data about the Tangshan Earthquake are reflected in the public art design, which makes the site has targeted memorial significance and reflects the inheritance and development of urban culture. When public art is integrated with the surrounding environment, it will give deeper meanings and connotation to the entire site and at the same time give people who come to the site a deeper sense of memorial meaning.
