Mucem
Popular ? Treasures from the Mucem collections
December 13 2023 to December 31 2026
As the Mucem celebrates its tenth anniversary this year, it’s an ideal opportunity to take a look back at the heart and history of the museum: its collection. This permanent exhibition presents the collection in all its diversity. It brings together the historical holdings of the Musée national des arts et traditions populaires, the European collections of the Musée de l’Homme and those acquired since the early 2000s in a bid to open up to the Mediterranean and the contemporary world.
Mediterranean – Chapter 1: Inventions and representations
June 5 to December 31 2026
Curated by Marie-Charlotte Calafat, Justine Bohbote, Raphaël Bories, Camille Faucourt, Enguerrand Lascols and Hélia Paukner
Mucem is the only social museum whose scientific project is entirely devoted to the cultures of the Mediterranean, so to mark its 10th anniversary, it is inviting us to discover the wealth of its European and Mediterranean collections through a new permanent exhibition. From Greco-Latin antiquity to the present day, via the colonial period, this exhibition immerses us in the history of the plural and fantasised ‘Mediterraneas’.
