- O fascínio do cinema na arte pública: entre a ficção e a realidadePublication . Regatão, José PedroPublic art is one of the most relevant artistic manifestations in urban spaces, by the way it interacts with the public and relates to the surrounding environment. Today it is possible to observe a set of artistic interventions that are inspired, directly or indirectly, in the cinema, giving special importance to its aesthetic and cultural dimension. This text intends to analyze and to reflect critically on a set of works of public art dedicated to the cinematographic art and its main protagonists. From the commemorative sculpture that deals with the history of the seventh art, to the sculptural installation that celebrates a character or an actor.
- Do monumento comemorativo à arte públicaPublication . Regatão, José PedroIn this paper we tried to define and discuss the concept of public art in light of the theoretical work that justified the creation of this subject, with reference to the main arguments that have characterized the discussion on the topic. To that end, we present a model based on a set of aesthetic and conceptual transformation that occurred in art from the second half of the twentieth century onwards, as far as the plastic formulation, and the perspective of a new understanding of the Spectator place are concerned. This also implies the recognition of old values rejection that characterized the traditional public monument and the failure of its own compositional structure. Thus it is argued that public art is inseparable from the traditional monument crisis, in that it proposes a rupture with this historical context, promoting a new awareness of its form and function. For that purpose we present several artistic projects that illustrate the theoretical and practical implications of this concept.
