This is a classic example of why curators should not consume copious quantities of red wine when planning an exhibition.
Then again, perhaps they should.
“Bizarre! That is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in a museum in my whole life”.
(Head Curator, Australian Museum, Sydney.) N.B. He doesn’t curate heads. It means he’s the boss.
“It’s Just Not Cricket” proves its okay to have a good belly laugh in a museum. And at museums, for that matter. This exhibition includes “The Evolution of the Cricket Bat”, a very droll story. That means it’s a joke as well.
