Abstract

The digital age has brought about changes in human lifestyles and cognition, which has triggered new technological and social issues. Within this context, both the form and content of public art have undergone transformations. Public art in the digital age has shifted from traditional forms such as sculptures, murals and architecture that is static, fixed and permanent to non-static, non-fixed and non-permanent forms. This article draws on Henri Lefebvre’s three spatial concepts, this paper proposes three spatial forms of public art: material space (reproduced space), spiritual space (presence space) and virtual space (digital space). It delves into the development of public art in the digital age, from a superficial to a profound exploration and seeks to propose a type of public-digital art with multiple forms and meanings, which signifies the direction of public art in the digital age.
