Discuss how Olafur Eliasson’s Waterfall demonstrates the qualities of site-specific art.
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The ideal answer should include:

2. This work is site-specific because it was created solely for the gardens of Versailles and its meaning relies on the presence of other waterfalls and fountains on the property.
