Comment by AB: Group show features the work of six alumni of Recology's Artist in Residence Program (AIR). When it comes to making art, the things other people throw away provide a bounty of materials that can be rescued, revived, revitalized and transformed to once again contribute to the splendor of our environment rather than litter or pollute it. Good show; check it out.
