Exhibition #3

On view October 13 – December 25, 2010 in London.

After the success of its British and Italian shows, The Museum of Everything presents Exhibition #3: a new celebration of non- traditional art and artists from around the world, curated with the founding father of British Pop Art, Sir Peter Blake.

Sir Peter Blake is a collector par excellence. From The Beatles to the present day, his love of self-taught art, discovered objects and anonymous artefacts have informed and inspired his own oeuvre.

In Exhibition #3, Sir Peter Blake will reveal his discoveries for the very first time. Together they will form the largest art installation ever created by the legendary artist and collector.

Exhibition #3 will also recreate one of the greatest marvels of Victorian England – Mr. Potter’s Museum of Curiosities. An eccentric self-taught artist, Potter’s astonishing woodland dioramas include cricket matches, classrooms, weddings and clubs, all populated by a cast of dogs, kittens, squirrels and birds.

This rare and historic body of work has influenced such artists as Damien Hirst, Polly Morgan and Sir Peter Blake. It forms a unique snapshot of a lost artform and its brilliant Victorian creator.

The Museum of Everything is a Frieze VIP associate. Events during Frieze week include talks, screenings and wrestling matches.

** The Museum of Everything is Britain’s first museum for art by the untrained, unintentional and undiscovered creators of society.**
