Exhibition: “Opening the album of the world”, a look at the beginnings of photography outside Europe

Open World album, the new exhibition at the Musée du Quai Branly sets out to show the beginnings of photography outside of Europe. A story little known, because the images are little shown. Through a selection of 300 photos belonging mainly to the museum’s collection, we follow the dissemination of this medium from its beginnings in Asia, Africa, Oceania and the Americas.


“Opening the World Album” is on view at the Musée du Quai Branly until July 2, 2023.
