Tiivistelmä
The article discusses the relationship between time and public art beginning with the heideggerian notion of vulgar time. This starting point grows from the observation that public art is easily understood more as a spatial rather than a temporal entity. However, several individual artworks that utilize different options of media technology (moving images, sounds, lights) emphasize their own constructedness as spatio-temporal experiences. The key issue in these examples seems to be the notion of movement and how the given artwork either speeds up or slows down while recreating an audio-visual negotiation with the environment in which it has been established. Some of the public artworks in Turku, Finland are studied in more detail from this temporal perspective.
