A visit of the exhibition with one of our cultural mediators for a first light on its content.
This documentary exhibition recounts stories of artists' commitment and four cases of museums in solidarity with the international anti-imperialist movement of the 1960s and 1980s. The result of research by researchers and curators Kristine Khouri and Rasha Salti, it begins with the forgotten stories of transcontinental «museums in exile» or «museums in solidarity», often conceived as travelling exhibitions, which embodied the support of artists for struggles for the emancipation of peoples, notably in Palestine, Nicaragua, Chile and South Africa.

Île-de-France

Building on these years of success, the Palais de Tokyo became, in 2012, one of the largest sites dedicated to contemporary creation in Europe. It now extends to the Seine, forming a link on the hillside between the Eiffel Tower and the Champs-Elysées. Its success, its spirit of adventure and its new spaces put at the service of artists, their gestures and their gazes increase our capacity to perceive, imagine and open new paths.
