Robot Wars by Erik98122

I saw an ad on Metro today for EMP’s robot collection on display through October 26th. The EMP website reads:

Robots: A Designer’s Collection of Miniature Mechanical Marvels celebrates our long fascination with humankind’s technological version of itself. This exhibition draws from a one-of-a-kind assemblage of toy robots, which noted designer Tom Geismar has been collecting for decades. Inspired by antique tin and wooden toys, samurai warriors and mid-20th century Japanese film characters, these intricately detailed and beautifully designed miniatures are set against EMP|SFM’s backdrop of life-sized robots, androids and cyborgs from the world of science fiction film and television.

I wish I had known that this was running sooner, but it’s not too late! It’s one of the rare worthwhile excuses to step into EMP.
