  As the Spring Festival of the Year of the Rabbit is approaching, holiday decorations with the theme of rabbits have appeared one after another around the country.

There are videos on the Internet comparing the rabbit decorations exhibited in various places. As a result, the rabbits in Nanning replaced the rabbits in Chongqing as the main object of complaints from netizens.

Prior to this, the rabbit lighting in the Three Gorges Square in Shapingba, Chongqing, had been demolished because netizens commented that it was "ugly, crying and scary".

  On the Internet, the rabbit decorations designed in Shanghai, Nanjing, Zigong, Chengdu, Xi'an and other places are beautiful in appearance and have their own characteristics. They combine the appearance, personality and other characteristics of the rabbit with the local image and culture.

These rabbit images are well received. In the final analysis, the reason is that they fit the public's aesthetics. They are not only within people's expectations, but also have some new surprises.

Undoubtedly, the design of such public art installations can achieve the ideal effect of creating a festive atmosphere.

  Now looking back at the Chongqing Rabbit before the demolition, it is actually acceptable.

Its anthropomorphic face, as well as the patterns of auspicious clouds and coins drawn on its body, not only have festive and auspicious elements, but also create a unique visual impact.

It is a pity that it was dismantled as soon as it was exhibited.

Because it has become a public resource when it is built, it is necessary to solicit opinions extensively before demolition. If a little explanation is given, the citizens can gradually accept it and avoid a waste.

  The same is true for the rabbit in Nanning. It was undisputedly evaluated by netizens as "directly winning", but in fact it partially achieved its goal indirectly.

At present, people's discussion on the decoration of rabbits in various places has become a topic of Spring Festival.

With the popularity of the Nanning rabbit, it is not ruled out that some citizens and netizens will make a special trip to visit this unique rabbit.

  The formation of the urban public art atmosphere is actually based on one piece of work and one incident as a carrier, simply relying on the reason of "beauty and ugliness" to dismantle it, and instead lose an opportunity to seek a diversified presentation of public art , let the creation lose its vitality.
