A site without a place is a space :

Abstract

This thesis analyzes a series of art works, institutions and art programs in Colombia that have shaped site-specific works since the 1980s. Due to the fact that site-specific projects in Colombia have not evolved at the same pace--or with similar theoretical, and/or critical support--as other contexts (e.g. North America or Europe,) this is an attempt to contextualize a series of predicaments in the production (and reproduction) of site-specific works in the country. This thesis also lays out the methodology I implemented in order to develop the project The Space of Place. The Place of Space: an installation I presented in mid 2017, which connects my research on site-specificity with my creative work as a visual artist.
