Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1990 Jacques Chirac, the future president of France and a passionate fan of non-European art, met Jacques Kerchache, a maverick art collector with the lifelong ambition of displaying African sculpture in the holy temple of French culture, the Louvre. Together they began laying plans, and ten years later African fetishes were on view under the same roof as the Mona Lisa. Then, in 2006, amidst a maelstrom of controversy and hype, Chirac presided over the opening of a new museum dedicated to primitive art in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower: the Musée du Quai Branly. Paris Primitive recounts the massive reconfiguration of Paris’s museum world that resulted from Chirac’s dream, set against a backdrop of personal and national politics, intellectual life, and the role of culture in French society. Along with exposing the machinations that led to the MQB’s creation, Sally Price addresses the thorny questions it raises about the legacy of colonialism, the balance between aesthetic judgments and ethnographic context, and the role of institutions of art and culture in an increasingly diverse France. Anyone with a stake in the myriad political, cultural, and anthropological issues raised by the MQB will find Price’s account fascinating.

Book excerpt: The Musée du quai Branly in Paris, opened in 2006, is home to over 450,000 works from the indigenous cultures of Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas.

Download or read book Places of Public Memory written by Greg Dickinson and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2010-08-02 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though we live in a time when memory seems to be losing its hold on communities, memory remains central to personal, communal, and national identities. And although popular and public discourses from speeches to films invite a shared sense of the past, official sites of memory such as memorials, museums, and battlefields embody unique rhetorical principles. Places of Public Memory: The Rhetoric of Museums and Memorials is a sustained and rigorous consideration of the intersections of memory, place, and rhetoric. From the mnemonic systems inscribed upon ancient architecture to the roadside acci
Book Synopsis Musée du quai Branly by : Hélène Fulgence
Download or read book Musée du quai Branly written by Hélène Fulgence and published by Editions de la Martinière. This book was released on 2012 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suivant la philosophie même du musée du quai Branly, connu également sous le nom de musée des Arts Premiers, à savoir "là où dialoguent les cultures", l'ouvrage se veut un miroir de l'échange incessant qui existe entre l'espace végétal extraordinairement foisonnant conçu par Gilles Clément, l'architecture particulière du bâtiment et le plateau des collections. En effet, l'architecte et le jardinier ont composé le jardin et le musée de telle sorte que l'un soit le prolongement de l'autre, dans un même rapport spatial. Plus original, les grandes expositions qui ont jalonné l'histoire du musée ("D'un regard l'autre", "Dogon", "Tarzan", "Les Maîtres du désordre" ...) seront également présentées. Les 3 chapitres permettent de traverser le musée dans toutes ses dimensions et d'évoquer tous les aspects qui en font l'unicité et la popularité en évitant de morceler ce qui est conçu, à la manière d'une toile universelle, comme un monde.

Book Synopsis Across Anthropology by : Margareta von Oswald
Download or read book Across Anthropology written by Margareta von Oswald and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-15 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we rethink anthropology beyond itself? In this book, twenty-one artists, anthropologists, and curators grapple with how anthropology has been formulated, thought, and practised ‘elsewhere’ and ‘otherwise’. They do so by unfolding ethnographic case studies from Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Poland – and through conversations that expand these geographies and genealogies of contemporary exhibition-making. This collection considers where and how anthropology is troubled, mobilised, and rendered meaningful. Across Anthropology charts new ground by analysing the convergences of museums, curatorial practice, and Europe’s reckoning with its colonial legacies. Situated amid resurgent debates on nationalism and identity politics, this book addresses scholars and practitioners in fields spanning the arts, social sciences, humanities, and curatorial studies.
