In an exciting new venture, the Museum of Miniature Found Objects has carried out its first curatorial exchange with the Musée du Bricolage in Bordeaux. The French curators Didier Fardeau, Camille Cambrioleur and Gaspard Legrand have been working with the MMFO's collection over the past month. Drawing on their expertise they have created this thought-provoking installation, Le lèche-vitrine, currently on display in the main foyer. The French team will be leading a series of tours throughout the coming week, examining the MMFO's collection from the perspective of bricolage. Further details and times are available from the Museum Gift Shop.
