Museum: Walter Potter at the Museum of Everything

Seven years after it was sold and dispersed across the world, Walter Potter's collection is being reassembled in an exhibition co-curated by Peter Blake.  The displays are being assembled at the reopened Museum of Everything, a pop-up museum in a former Victorian dairy, and  later recording studio, in Primrose Hill, London.

Damien Hirst, who built his international fame on creatures such as his shark, and Sir Peter Blake, who is co-curator of the exhibition, have each lent pieces for the show. Both regard Potter as a genius, and his work as a national treasure which should have been kept together for permanent public display.  Read more here +

Thanks for your update, Dianne. I haven't been to see the show myself (I live in Vancouver, Canada) - but let me know any more opinions or details! thanks again.
