The message conveyed by these shots? “The need to defend the rights stated in the Declaration whatever the concerned region of the world, underlining the universal scope of this text” the Musée de l’Homme has stated.

At the same time, Clarisse Rebotier takes over the museum’s areas with pictures on “different people”, migrants who are often fleeing war in their homeland. The perfect occasion to (re)visit the Musée de l’Homme and its wonderful collections.

Please note that for the anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the admission will be free of charged on December 8 and 9, 2018.

Please note that it's been over 4 years since our last visit, so the place and experience may have changed.
