The Museum of the History of Science has opened a new exhibition:
Small Worlds: the art of the invisible
It offers novel ways for visitors to enjoy the Museum's collection of
Victorian and Edwardian microscopical specimens, in an exhibition of
images, animation and poetry, made in collaboration with artist
Heather Barnett and poet Will Holloway. Where else can you admire
bespoke wallpaper and curtains while listening to poems derived on
audio-handsets? If you find yourself within reach, it's worth a
look, and a listen (we think).
The exhibition will continue till 6 April 2008.
Regular opening hours are: Tuesday to Friday 12-5, Saturday 10-5,
Sunday 2-5 (closed between Christmas and New Year).
