The Musee du Quai Branly opened 23 June and I was there. Ta da! Since much time was spent waiting to get in, some photos are of those waiting with me. And because photos of the interior exhibits, dedicated to arts and civilisations of Africa, Asia, Oceanie and the Americas, were off limits, I shot mostly exteriors. The view that most intrigued passers-by was the curatorial wing, outside the Museum proper, which was planted vertically with a great array of vegetation. How did they do it?
It appears that much of the museum rests on this single support. I'll bet a few engineers sweated blood over the calculations to make this happen.
