The placement of public art in a city park may stimulate and invite active contacts rather than just passive observation, thereby promoting social interaction. The purpose of this study is to discuss the use public art as well as its role in improving social interaction in public space. The aesthetic quality in a work of art can transmit impulses resulting particular suggestions in human's imaginative life and even attract activities that in turn create a great public space that sustains stronger communities. As a case study is public art in Taman Suropati, Menteng, Jakarta, which is known as the first garden city in Indonesia. In 1984, six statues from six pioneer countries of ASEAN were placed in this garden. This garden functions not only as a green open space and a recreational area for nearby residents but also as a place for some art communities to meet and hold their activities. The phenomena of a park that enhances community's activities in Taman Suropati becomes the focus for the study especially how the idea of public art is initiated, sustained, and affected urban lives. This study also suggests some possibilities of improving urban life's quality by using public art located at public spaces as the medium.

In regard to create sustainability of public space, it is necessary to use both physical and aesthetic elements of the park and art in public realm can be a powerful tool to reach people and play an active role in forming and presenting local identity of cities. In this paper, a research in Taman Suropati, Menteng, Jakarta, is conducted as a case study of how public art in the city park generates interaction between visitors. As a historical landmark of the city, Taman Suropati has its own appeal to the people of Jakarta. The park has provided a good sample of how urban space is activated through public art and community activities. By analyzing the relation between spatial elements and social activities in Taman Suropati, we can learn about the importance of public art to support community interaction and help to create an attractive and lively urban environment. Thus, this paper aims to investigate the role of public art as a tool for enhancing the quality of urban space and making creative, lively urban open spaces to promote a more sustainable urban living and maintain the public realm of cities as an interaction space.
