Pete McKee's soup can
When the donors handed over their tins of food, McKee handed them a tin of his own in return. It was empty, but it had a label he'd designed himself.


It was a nod to Andy Warhol's famous Campbell's soup tin, but McKee's limited edition packaging had one of his trademark cartoon-style pictures - of an old lady supping a bowl of soup on a settee with a tray balanced on her lap, with a dog gazing longingly at her lunch.
