Public art plays a growing role in shaping not just the cultural identity of a city, but also its economic landscape. This paper explores how public art initiatives can generate tangible economic benefits, from attracting tourism and investment to boosting local business activity and increasing property values. Drawing on real-world examples such as the High Line in New York, Millennium Park in Chicago, and Superkilen in Copenhagen, the research examines how art in public spaces contributes to urban revitalization and supports long-term economic development. At the same time, the paper emphasizes that public art is not merely a tool for economic gain; it is also a vital means of fostering cultural expression, community identity, and social cohesion.
