In ancient days, "bread and circuses" were deemed enough to keep the population happy. Today, we are equally easy to please. Give us music, films, sports, or art, and most of us will leave our worries and sorrows behind -- at least just for a moment. Here, Boesch represents the modern "bread and circuses" in the form of portraits of Jay-Z, Derek Jeter, and Andy Warhol, created solely from cut-up, expired MetroCards.
