Discovering this little known museum with the enigmatic name is a real treat, especially during the current exhibition Uchronies in the which the eclectic nature of the museum's collection is demonstrated to great effect. Curator Olivier Rollin has chosen pieces from the late 19th century to the present day, local, Belgian and international, to create a fascinating dialogue that changes our perception. Richard Harris speaks with Mr Rollin as well as with artist Boris ThiƩbaut, whose piece specially created for the show illustrates the poignancy of impermanence. www.bps22.be
