Come and look at something for longer than four seconds

A museum of industrial making, selling the one thing a feed cannot: standing still in front of an object.

Come and look at something for longer than four seconds.

The Foundry Museum has a bronze collection and a footfall problem. The line names what the visitor gets: time in front of a thing. Print led, in the arts and weekend pages, with 6-sheets at the transit stops nearest the museum and a social run whose every post held one still frame for a full minute. Weekend attendance was up 18 percent over the run.
