Site-Specific

Site-Specific refers to sculpture or any other art which responds/interacts with/is inspired by its surroundings. In part site-specificity in art responds to a greater historical trend which places art in everyday life as opposed to a separate and privileged sphere. Artists producing site-specific works range from people like Robert Smithson, Andy Goldsworthy and Christo to Richard Serra and younger artists like Sarah Sze.
