On Wednesday the Museum of Miniature Found Objects welcomed Professor Tang Wen, Director of the Shanghai Museum of the Inconsequential. Mrs van Buren (Keeper of Collections) was delighted to give him a personally guided tour of the museum and its extensive archives. Professor Tang declared himself overjoyed at the variety and richness of the items on display, and full of admiration for the depth of intellectual scholarship evidenced in both the collection and its cataloguing. Of Poupette's Last Thoughts, he had this to say, "A profoundly moving experience, and I congratulate the museum on its enthusiastic embrace of advanced technologies that allow us to explore new realms. Without the Museum of Miniature Found Objects, the world would be a poorer place!"
