Morbid Anatomy's Joanna Ebenstein reports from London where she visited The Museum of Everything's 'Exhibition #3,' 'a carnivalesque spree exploring all things collectory, side-show, circus, grotto, and taxidermological.' The show includes a restaging of Victorian taxidermist Walter Potter's famously strange wunderkammer, the contents of which are now owned by the likes of Damien Hirst and Sir Peter Blake. The Guardian also covered the exhibit with more history of Potter's collection.
