Renowned cartoonist Feggo, whose work has appeared in the New Yorker and numerous international publications, presents a delightful collection of indispensable drawings created on disposable materials. Upon arriving in New York City from his native Mexico, he was amazed by the diversity of packaged foods available, but appalled by the waste left behind. Thus Feggo began collecting interesting paper bags, boxes, cans, labels, cartons and food containers on which to create his Used/Reused series that captures the full range of pulsating life in the Big Apple. This volume accompanies an exhibition of his drawings that transform these sad symbols of consumerism into deft, sympathetic and funny visual insights into his adopted home town. As he likes to say one person’s trash is another person’s canvas.
