History of site-specific art

Since the 1960s artists have tried to find another way to reles themselve from there situation, they started to draw attention to the site and the context that sirounded the locastion . The work of art was created in the space and could only exist and in such circumstances. The location in which should comprises a unique combination of physical elements such as depth, length, weight, height, shape, walls, and temperature. With this as a foundashion for the work of art it began to emerge from walls of museums and galleries to creating a diffrant atmusfer within the locastion.

Examples of work for site-specific art often include landscaping combined with permanently sited sculptural elements (Site-specific art can be linked with Environmental art). Outdoor site-specific artworks can also include dance performances created especially for the site. More broadly, the term is sometimes used for any work that is (more or less) permanently attached to a particular location. In this sense, a building with interesting architecture could also be considered a piece of site-specific art.
