Current Status

You are inside the Gotch Museum, its collection of work by conceptual artists now thick with dust. The building has been extremely heavily barricaded.

A portable generator has been set up here. It is out of fuel, and connected to a powered-down radio transmitter. One room of the museum has been cleared, for the display of four conceptual paintings, two fire-damaged paintings, an abstract painting and a Ming vase.


Description

As you can read on a Gotch Museum Pamphlet:

"Hello, and a million warm greetings to the Gotch Museum, a Conceptual Art Museum or as our curator likes to call it, the house of ethereal and timeless beauty and solidness. When Z-Day fell on us, we were stuck with an exhibit by a contemporary artist... we now cling to those artworks like oxygen! Here at the Gotch, we like to surprise you with ancient artifacts and artworks. A million and one hidden panels, foot falls and switches are stashed all over our very modern and glistening white museum. Should you happen to trigger one of our displays, you'll find that we've Gotch-ya!
We also are the lucky owners of a very beautiful and solid mobile phone mast, maintained by MalTel and the Uppill Police Precinct via Foxtrot.
So enjoy our lovely museum, and even though you may be under threat from the horrors of zombification, please take time to enjoy our displays and leave a generator or some fuel as a donation."


History

The Gotch Museum has a mobile phone mast, which was originally maintained by Justic Inc; After that group abandoned the area, care of the Museum and Phone Mast fell to both MalTel and the DHPD. For the period most of 2008 - 2009, Gotch Museum was steadily held by The Dead. It continues to change hands between survivors and the undead on a constant basis as local groups cycle through the resource complex it is part of.

Barricade Policy

For the friendliness and solidness to be maintained in our surprising museum, barricading is recommended at Extremely Heavy.
