Making Art out of Garbage
Thursday, February 15, 2007
Robert Reed of Norcal Waste Systems, and former dump artist-in-residence Tyrome Tripoli, tell us about a program at the San Francisco city dump that turns trash into treasure. Artists chosen for a residency are given 24-hour access to a large studio at the dump, tools and equipment, and permission to scavenge through 80 tons of material a day.

Happy to hear NY is interested in garbage art programs. I have been to the artist in residence art show not only entertaining but educational. Nice interview.
