Thesis (M.L.A.)--Mississippi State University, 2005.

This study examines both the role of art in the creation of public space, and the difference in user behavior when exposed to three types of sculpture. Public art has been acclaimed for its ability to create vibrant public spaces. However, little empirical research has studied the impact of public art on the creation of spaces, or the differences between types of art on user behavior. This quasi-experiment was performed on an underutilized space between two major buildings on the Mississippi State University campus. The behavior observation data was collected in the fall term, with changes introduced weekly. Baseline observations were followed by the addition of benches, abstract sculpture, non-objective sculpture, and representational sculpture in subsequent weeks.

520 $a This study examines both the role of art in the creation of public space, and the difference in user behavior when exposed to three types of sculpture. Public art has been acclaimed for its ability to create vibrant public spaces. However, little empirical research has studied the impact of public art on the creation of spaces, or the differences between types of art on user behavior. This quasi-experiment was performed on an underutilized space between two major buildings on the Mississippi State University campus. The behavior observation data was collected in the fall term, with changes introduced weekly. Baseline observations were followed by the addition of benches, abstract sculpture, non-objective sculpture, and representational sculpture in subsequent weeks.
520 $a Results indicate site use was greatest during week two of the study when only benches were present. Use decreased in both frequency and duration upon introduction of sculpture. However, viewing of the site increased with sculpture. The abstract sculpture generated the greatest interaction followed by the representational and the non-objective pieces.
