Read the text and answer the questions choosing the right answer.
Line number

1. When we hear the term art, we tend to think of private art - the kind displayed in private
2. spaces such as museums, concert halls and galleries. There is a growing interest in, and respect
3. for, public art: the kind of art created for and displayed in public spaces such as parks, building
4. lobbies and sidewalks. Public art, as opposed to art exhibited in museums and galleries, is art
5. specifically designed for a public arena where it will be encountered by people in their day-
6. to-day activities. Public art can be purely ornamental or highly functional; it can be as subtle
7. as a decorative door knob or as remarkable as “The Gates” by Christo and Jeanne-Claude.
8. “The Gates”, a large-scale art installation suspended from 16-foot-tall gates along 23 miles
9. of pathways in Central Park, New York City, was displayed in 2005. It is also an essential
10. element of effective urban design. The more obvious forms of public art include monuments,
11. sculptures, fountains, murals and gardens. Public art also takes the form of ornamental
12. benches or street lights, decorative manhole covers, and mosaics on trash bins. Many city
13. dwellers would be surprised to discover just how much public art is really around them and
14. how much art they have passed by without noticing it.
15. Public art fulfills several functions essential to the health of a city and its citizens. It
16. educates about history and culture - of the artist, the neighborhood, the city, the nation. Public
17. art is also a “place-making device” that instantly creates memorable landmarks and a unique
18. identity for a public place, personalizing it and giving it a specific character. It stimulates the
19. public, challenging viewers to interpret the art and arousing their emotions, and it promotes
20. community by stimulating interaction among viewers. In serving these multiple and important
21. functions, public art beautifies the area and regenerates both the place and the viewer. One
22. question often debated in public art forums is whether public art should be created with or by
23. the public rather than for the public. Increasingly, cities and artists are recognizing the
24. importance of creating works with meaning for the intended audience, and this generally
25. requires direct input from the community and from an artist rooted in that community. At the
26. same time, however, art created for the community by an “outsider” often adds a fresh
27. perspective.
