At the end of the 19th century, the French and the British fought for sovereignty over the archipelago of the New Hebrides, future Vanuatu, near New Caledonia. This colonial rivalry, fueled by religious missions and commercial interests, led to a unique regime of co-administration: a Franco-British condominium (1906 to 1980) until independence.
Composed of albums, prints inherited from old collections or recently acquired collections, this presentation brings together the oldest photographs of Vanuatu preserved by the museum. Carried out in the space of a decade, between 1885 and 1895, by operators with varied backgrounds – French and British, amateurs or professionals – who show the territory and the communities of ni-Vanuatu in a context of colonial tensions.
Curators: Carine Peltier-Caroff, head of the Image Library, Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac and Marie Durand, Associate Professor in Anthropology at the Institute of Ethnology of the University of Strasbourg, Interdisciplinary Laboratory in Cultural Studies (UMR7069).
