Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac
Description
This fourth issue features a diverse collection of articles exploring rich and unique cultural and artistic themes.
In particular, it examines jazz from the Roaring Twenties, Orientalism, and innovative museum experiences that challenge conventional approaches to presenting and transmitting culture.
The central feature, titled "The Trade in Cultures," analyzes from various angles the performance of the "dance of the great Amazonian masks" performed by the Wauja Indians of the Upper Xingu during the Radio France and Montpellier Festival in 2005. It examines the challenges of circulation, staging, and reception of cultural practices in contemporary contexts.
A thought-provoking issue that brings together historical, anthropological, and critical perspectives on intercultural exchange and its representations.
