As a managing partner of CultureLabel.com we are always on the quest for new, innovative products for the museum world. Some of our partners have amazing products in their shops (ie the Salt & Pepper or Cocaine&Heroin Shakers by David Shrigley at the Saatchi Gallery) and Tate is pushing the envelope even further with us. We are looking for the next generation museum shop product, ideas and designs can be submitted at our competition website Release and the winner will be in the Tate shops in Q4 2010.
