大安森林公園城市文化意象強化研究

Abstract

台北市大安森林公園至今建立24年，是全台灣第一座以森林公園為目標而規劃的都會公園，提供在地居民休閒遊憩與接近自然生態的空間，更曾獲選為台北市十大最受歡迎的公園第一名。然而，在全球化浪潮的演變下，城市開始積極改造城市公共空間，透過文化元素的注入堅守著本土文化的特色，以免喪失了己身的文化傳承，也因此都會公園也跟著產生了許多不同的功能與意義，許多都會公園開始積極讓多元形式的藝術文化活動在其中發生，間接地為城市塑造了十分貼近在地生活的文化意象。而大安森林公園中也依循著這樣的發展脈絡，舉辦了各式各樣的藝術文化活動，然而卻因種種的因素，難以在眾人心目中留下深刻的記憶或印象，即便是台北市市中心獨一無二的珍貴綠地，除了生態綠化以及休閒放鬆的功能外，未能妥善發展運用城市公共空間以及現有的文化資源，將大安森林公園之優勢極大化，並形塑獨特的文化意象，進而帶動更豐富多元的生活型態在大安森林公園中發生。因此本研究透過文獻分析與深度訪談，分析台北城市的文化意象以及大安森林公園本身的文化意象，與世界著名的都會公園做對照，了解城市中的城市公共空間所能為城市帶來的改變，並針對大安森林公園強化發展藝術文化活動之可能性，去做出相關研究和深入訪談，了解大安森林公園是否能夠擴大發展其藝術文化活動，以為大安森林公園樹立更加鮮明的城市文化意象。The Taipei Daan Forest Park which was built twenty-four years ago, was the first urban park that was designed to be a forest-scale park in Taiwan. The park provides the locals a recreation area with a natural-like environment. It also took the first place of the top 10 list of the most favorite park of the Taipei city. However, it seems to have more expectations to meet for a park nowadays. It becomes a worldwide trend to develop local culture in public spaces, which help establish the culture image of a city. Comparing with being a traditional playground, urban parks are considered as a platform which a variety of activities took places in. Affected by the globalism, more and more urban parks represent their cities’ cultures by holding art and culture activities, and so does Taipei Daan Forest Park. However, Taipei Daan Forest Park faces a problem that the public has difficulties to associate the park with culture. Though Taipei Daan Forest Park owns plenty of culture resources and has held a lot of cultural activities, people still regard it as only a natural playground. To convince the public to make the maximum use of culture resources in Taipei Daan Forest Park and enhance the culture image within the represented urban park of Taipei city, this research tries to analyze the images of Taipei Daan Forest Park, and compare them to those successful cases in other cities by using document analysis and in-depth interview. This research aims to figure out a strategy to enhance cultural image in Taipei Daan Forest Park and give out suggestions to relevant government agencies.
