The Art Takeaway! Oxford Collection
Museum of Contemporary Rubbish participated in The Art Takeaway! at Tsangs Kitchen, Oxford in June 2012.
The Art Takeaway! is an interactive production where audience members choose from a menu of original art. A distinctive selection of art pieces have been created by a wide variety of artists. Each work fits in a takeaway box and audience members who elect to take part in the performance go home with their piece of art at the end of the evening.

Museum of Contemporary Rubbish provided a staff badge, museum gloves and a bin liner and outlined the following pledge: “By ordering this item off the menu the participant becomes a temporary member of Museum staff and pledges to collect rubbish throughout the event.” Katrin took up the challenge acquired the Oxford Collection (#0635-0643).
