This essay examines three art projects that temporarily moved public sculptures to new locations. This thesis aims to analyze what effects these projects have on the public space and what significance it has on the public sculptures concerning conceptions of democracy and temporality. The conclusion of the essay is based on theories on public space and democracy by Catharina Gabrielsson and Rosalyn Deutsche. To analyze the aspect of temporality the essay relies on Elizabeth Freeman's theory of Chrono normativity and Catharina Gabrielsson's and Magnus Andersson's definition of the concept of annual growth rings (årsringar) in sites. The essay further uses Jessica Sjöholm Skrubbe's revision on Wolfgang Kemp's methodology of the aesthetics of reception and Roland Barthes's theory of semiotics to analyze the significance of the sculptures in the public space. The results of the analysis show that the art projects open up for different democratic possibilities in the public space by temporarily moving public sculptures.
