The Representation and Function of Public and Private Spaces

In this article we will analyze the method Agnès Varda uses in Les Glaneurs et la Glaneuse and LesPlages d'Agnès to emphasize the main theme of public space and private space. This is done through four key areas: setting, sound, camera style, and individual focused interview. Furthermore, in order to fully participate in this issue, you first need to understand what public space and private space are. Public space is a generally open social space that anyone can use.

Privately owned public spaces, also known as private public spaces (POPOS), are open to the public, but are public spaces owned by private groups (usually commercial real estate developers). The transformation from public public space to private public space is called privatization of public space and is a general result of urban reconstruction. Since around the 1960's, privatization of public spaces has been criticized by civil society organizations such as the Open Space Association (especially in urban areas). Private-public partnerships manage the parks and playgrounds extensively through the establishment of protection groups that can not be managed by public institutions. Corporate sponsorship in the public recreation field is everywhere and provides open spaces for the public in exchange for higher air rights.

Public space is a social space that is usually open and available to people. Roads, public plazas, parks, beaches are often considered public spaces. Publicly open government buildings such as public libraries are public spaces. Privately owned buildings and property seen from sidewalks and public roads can affect the public visual landscape, such as outdoor advertising, although they are not considered public spaces. Private space is the place where people live, I think that this is their psychology. When their personal space is infringed, most people place emphasis on their personal space and feel uncomfortable, angry, or anxious. It is an indicator of relationship between people and people to allow people to enter a private space and enter other people's personal space. The hotel offers privacy to lovers, children, close families.

From long ago, society has established informal and formal public and private spaces in its settlements. Public space is "a place where all citizens can use and use" (Jackson, 1974). In contrast, private places are open to people permitted by laws and customs. In the second half of the next article, it became clear that the terms "accessible", "used", and "enjoyed" have a very broad meaning (Francis, 1989). The division between public sphere and private area seems to be clear, but there may be ambiguity. Furthermore, different societies in different era of history have paid more attention to the creation and maintenance of public spaces. Public places are very important for urban sociologists who believe that public places are community activities and living places, such as parades, conferences, informal gatherings.
