Looking at twentieth and twenty-first-century art through the lens of re-used materials, this intriguing release is both a lesson in art history as well as a practical guidebook to creative recycling.

Each double-page spread provides a brief biography of a particular artist, a photograph and discussion of one of their works that incorporates second-hand materials, along with an activity for those at home.

Found features a number of movements, including Cubism, Dadaism, Performance Art and Installation, and profiles well-known artists such as Picasso, Duchamp, Tinguely and Rauschenberg, as well as Australian contemporaries Fiona Hall and Adam Hill.

A fascinating, engaging perspective for anyone aged 7 and up.
