Description

Step into a world of creativity and cultural exchange at the Musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac, where this season’s temporary exhibitions take center stage.

Begin your visit with “Dragons” (18 Nov 2025 – 1 Mar 2026), an extraordinary journey through 5,000 years of Asian legends and artistry, from ancient jade and bronze dragons to contemporary interpretations. Continue with “Africa Fashion” (31 Mar 2026 – 12 Jul 2026), a vibrant showcase of the rise of African fashion, blending traditional craftsmanship with bold, modern design. Explore “1913-1923: L’esprit du temps” (17 Mar 2026 – 20 Sep 2026), which immerses you in the Parisian discovery of African and Oceanic arts and their influence on modern art. Later in the year, “Plumes du paradis” (12 May 2026 – 8 Nov 2026) traces the journey of the birds of paradise, connecting natural history, art, and fashion across continents.

Beyond these captivating exhibitions, your ticket grants you access to the museum’s renowned permanent collection. Wander at your own pace through 3,500 works from Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas, spanning from the Neolithic period to the 20th century. The museum’s unique layout, inspired by a flowing river, guides you through themed spaces that illuminate the diversity and richness of non-European civilizations.

Before or after your visit, enjoy a panoramic view of the Eiffel Tower from the terrace of Restaurant Les Ombres. Please note that due to the fragility of certain items, displays may rotate frequently, ensuring there is always something new to discover.
