After turning trash cans and toters into art the only next logical step was to look beyond the surface of the subject of art from trash. Here we see the heart of the "TRASH ART" movement revealed for what it is. . A BAG! The walls are lined with trash from all over the city. Maybe it's art and maybe it's trash, but it is a BAG. We should all spend more time thinking about what to do with our trash before it gets tossed out. At least the art is cheap and edible, so if you're in the mood to get an art fix while taking a stroll through the trash you should totally check this out.

There's lots of art to be seen in the trash sections at the Bowery Art Squad Recycled Art Show and the Ninth Street Art Fair. One day we should take our trash and make some art out of it too, but maybe that's just as bad as leaving the trash on the curb, so we should just go back to the art show.

I'm not sure exactly what art piece this is, but it looks like a cross between a nest and a trash bag with teddy bears inside. Maybe it's art and maybe it's trash, but it sure does make a great impression. It doesn't look like much, but the display is by Canadian Art Club and it's cool. I wonder what was the artist thinking when he designed the nest-like bag of trash with an actual rat inside.

You can walk right by this trash art and not even notice it. If that's the kind of art you like then check out the Empty Walls Festival in the North Bronx this Sunday. It's the second annual festival where trash can get a look in too. If you go to the Empty Walls Festival you might find your next trash piece for your own artwork wall in the trash.

A cool piece of art and trash. It's called "WEEKEND TRASH" created by Jay Delay using only the finest of stock photos that are carefully selected from the internet using a search engine to reveal the subject of not a trash can or a toter, but the hidden hero that lines not only the walls of or waste bins but our virtual art galleries as well. They're free and they look good, so check them out.

It's all about art. You'd think people would be content with garbage art and trash sculptures, but no. There's art that takes trash and makes it art, and trash art that takes art and makes it trash. Regardless, at least there's trash art.

This is behind the Brooklyn Museum, but I am afraid the show has already been taken down or the TRASH picked up at this point. It's a life.
