FOMU is preparing for a large-scale relocation of the collection to the new collection tower, the first low-energy depot for photography in Europe. We are taking advantage of this relocation to show the collection work behind the scenes. For this purpose, the collection team is using a temporary transit zone and opening its doors to the public.
