The ancient souls of modern art: Musée du Quai Branly

The Paris museum of indigenous culture, Musée du Quai Branly Jacques Chirac, was created to showcase the art and artefacts of non-Western civilisations. In the classical art paradise of Paris, visitors tend to focus on European painters and cultural history, and less on the cultures that heavily influenced modern movements like Cubism and Impressionism.

a great find : the school of life

Here at wonder | wander | women and wonder | wander | world we are on a roll. Discovering curated sites and think tanks that entertain, educate and enhance us in a variety of ways and on many different levels.

From the most unlikely to the most prolific. From the absurd to the profane. From superficial kitsch to profound collections.

As our appetite to absorb and expand grows and draws more to us so too does our desire to not just accumulate but to understand and better yet, to experiment with and put into application.
