  • Contemporary Sculptures
    Contemporary Sculptures: Decoding the Body of Aesthetic Knowledge Suitable for Public Parks ประติมากรรมร่วมสมัย: ถอดรหัสองค์ความรู้ทางสุนทรียภาพที่เหมาะสมกับสวน สาธารณะในประเทศไทย Adool Booncham Songkoon Chantachon et al. Mahasarakham University Abstract The purpose of this research was to examine the background, current conditions, problems and body of aesthetic knowledge of contemporary sculptures suitable for public parks in Thailand. The research area covered Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Songkhla, Krabi and Ubon Ratchathani provinces in which there are constructions of contemporary sculpture permanently installed in the public parks. The research procedure used the qualitative research methodology. Data were collected from related literature and field studies using survey, interviews and focus group discussion from a group of 203 informants. The findings were presented by means of a descriptive analysis. The results show that there are 101 constructions of contemporary sculptures permanently installed in 15 parks across Thailand. Saphan Hin Park in Phuket was the first public park to feature a contemporary sculpture in 1969. In Bangkok there are 8 parks containing a total of 40 sculptures, in Chiang Mai there were 2 parks with 43 sculptures (although 1 piece has been stolen and 1 is not at the point of installation), in Phuket there are 2 parks with 2 sculptures, in Songkhla there are 2 parks with 15 sculptures and in Ubon Ratchathani there is 1 park with 1 sculpture. The problems found were generated from a lack of data concerning the background, importance and maintenance of the sculptures and their components. The aesthetics of the contemporary sculptures in the public parks consists of 3 aspects: content, form and relationship with the environment and activities of the people who use the public parks.

TSP and PM10 samples were collected during the rainy season, from September 2009 to October 2009 and during the winter season, from January 2010 to February 2010 using high volume air samplers. The samples were collected from five sites in four public parks: Lumphini (two sampling sites), Suan Luang Rama 9, Benchasiri, and Saranrom. The results showed that all 162 samples of 24-hour average TSP and PM10 concentrations were lower than Thailand’s ambient air quality standards. Concentration levels of TSP at Lumphini 1, Lumphini 2, Suan Luang Rama 9, Benchasiri, and Saranrom in the rainy season varied from 34.1–55.6, 26.6–42.9, 33.7–78.2, 42.0–83.6, and 43.9–73.7 µg/m3 respectively, and in the winter season from81.8–124.2, 75.2– 3 118.9, 36.9–113.0, 47.6–125.0, and 56.4–139.9 µg/m respectively. Levels of PM10 in the rainy season varied from 17.5–28.1, 10.4–20.5, 23.4–55.2, 22.2–49.0, and 31.0–60.0 µg/m3 respectively, and in the winter season from 51.1–82.7, 42.0–71.2, 20.8–74.9, 27.3–90.6, and 37.0–110.2 µg/m3 respectively.
