The current collections of the Museum of Ethnography of the University of Bordeaux (MEB) gather about 5,000 objects from Africa, America, Asia, Oceania. Illustrating the daily life of Indigenous peoples, the oldest objects date from the end of the 19th century and come from the same collection as those of the Guimet and Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac museums. The creation of the MEB dates from 1894 within the faculty of medicine of Bordeaux. After a long closure, it reopened its doors in 2011, and has since proposed nine temporary exhibitions. With the exhibition Textile(s) 3D the museum questions how digital technologies allow to know, study and value cultural heritage. How do social and “hard” sciences work together to preserve it? The European Heritage Days are an opportunity to come and meet the textile collection of the MEB, as beautiful as it is fragile and enter the world of cutting-edge technologies in the service of the knowledge and protection of ancient textiles.
