This anthology traces the evolution of Situation from the 1960s emergence of site-specific art to its divergent implications in the global era. Among the topics surveyed are the limits of site; the role of the artist as ethnographer or fieldworker; the relation between action and public space ; and the crucial role of the curator in new situation-specific art.
