- Summary:
- The project for this exhibition arose from a surprise visit by the president of the Musée du quai Branly-Jacques Chirac (MqB) in Paris, France, Dr. Emmanuel Kesarhérou, to the Museo Nacional de las Culturas del Mundo (MNCM) as part of his visit to Mexico in 2021. Dr. Kersarhérou, originally from Kanady-New Caledonia, was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the Oceanian pieces in the MCNM collection, so he began the process of a joint exhibition between the two institutions. It should be mentioned that the MNCM's Oceania collection is extremely valuable, since its pieces were selected by Miguel Covarrubias in the middle of the last century, and were the object of an exchange between the Field Museum of Chicago and the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) in 1952. This collection materialized the first exhibition of non-native cultures of Mexico in the, at that time, National Museum in 1954, designed by Covarrubias himself and created by the museographer Mario Vázquez, another great founding figure of this institution. The catalogue comprises 10 essays written by researchers and curators from the collections of the MNCM and the Musée du Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac (MqB), institutions that joined forces for this exhibition; as well as independent specialists and others attached to the National University of Australia and East Anglia, in England.
