About this product

Product Information

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.

Found Object Art
This is an important addition to the library of any artist interested in Found Object Art and recycling. It's amazing to see what can be created from discarded items: artist Susan Colquitt makes unique sculptural use of industrial zippers, Leo Sewell tickles the imagination by collaging colorful old toys, film rolls, kitchen parts, beads and more over figural ojbects and the jewelry of Ken Bova and Susan Skinner is seemingly made from nothing yet becomes whimisical treasures to electrify an everyday outfit. Too many inspirational artists to mention just a few and be fair but buy this book and you will see what I'm talking about. Emily
