This fascinating, fully illustrated book explores several recognisable trends among artists who consistently ‘re-purpose’ garbage or detritus to create works that examine identity and environment. Featuring interviews with the artists, this cleverly designed volume highlights both recognisable and unpublished works of art from established and emerging artists in the field. This book accompanies a major exhibition at the Ringling Museum of Art, Florida, from 13 February to 17 May 2015.
