Abstract

In traditional Chinese culture, there is a concept of "poetic space", which emphasizes the atmosphere full of poetic romantic emotions in the environment. This atmosphere has rich emotional feelings and can convey a delicate personal aesthetic, which is an important feature of traditional Chinese aesthetic. In modern urban renewal, the implementation of poetic space transformation for areas with historical and humanistic aesthetic can better activate traditional humanistic and historical resources, which is conducive to the renewal and improvement of traditional parks and the maximization of social, cultural and economic benefits. Starting from the perspective of poetic space construction and public art, this paper explores the renewal design path of the unique landscape of Fotuguan Park, a traditional historical footpath park in Chongqing, and focuses on how contemporary public art intervenes in urban parks to establish effective site space and emotional connection between ancient and modern culture, so as to promote the improvement of urban humanistic quality.
