Alex Kalman, Josh Safdie and Benny Safdie, founders of Red Bucket Films, opened this unconventional museum in an abandoned elevator shaft. Its nondescript name seems part of their aesthetic, rooted in fascination with the unnoticed objects of everyday life: The museum’s holdings are strange and sundry artifacts, such as objects that surfer Mark Cunningham found on the beach and what may be the shoe thrown at George W.
