// Desapropriaçâo 1 by André Komatsu is a limited edition lithograph from 2011 that presents a stark, surreal image. Against a solid black background, a lone table is depicted with precise white linework, bearing a grid pattern on its surface and a singular light source hanging above. The center of the table seems to dissolve into a mound or crater-like form, suggesting themes of absence, erosion, or destabilization. Komatsu’s work often delves into social and political commentary, exploring the fragility of structures and spaces. This piece, measuring 70 cm by 100 cm, evokes a sense of emptiness and uncertainty, inviting viewers to contemplate the concept of dispossession or displacement implied in the title, and challenging perceptions of stability in familiar objects.

What is site specific art?
Site-Specific Art is a form of artwork created to exist in a particular location, with the artist considering the site as an integral part of the creative process. Robert Irwin was a key figure in promoting this art form in California. Site-Specific Art emerged as a reaction against modernist objects, which were often portable, commodified, and confined to museum spaces. In contrast, Site-Specific Art is inherently tied to its location, challenging the traditional notions of art as a transportable and marketable commodity.
