Recycling of found objects is taken to the level of art form is
this creative book-an homage to the wondrous world of artists who
create extraordinary objects from what were once very ordinary
things. Inside are hundreds of examples showing trash transformed
into fascinating sculpture, collages, furniture, jewelry, and
clothing -- some items functional, some not. Meet the artists who
count themselves among an exclusive club of dumpster divers and
garbage pickers from all over the United States. And watch as other
people's junk finds new life as treasure. This book, and the
innovative artisans inside, will profoundly influence the way you
view life and its everyday detritus.
