Sensitive items in the permanent exhibition

The MEG's ‘Parcours dialogue’ invites you to discover new stories about the history and significance of objects. Permanent exhibition. Sunday 18 January at 11.15am.

Bandeau jaune avec écrit: dialogue. C'est le bandeau qui se trouve sur chacun des objets qui constituent le parcours dialogue dans l'exposition permanente.

The ‘Dialogue Trail’ in the permanent exhibition invites you to hear new stories about the history, significance and special place of certain objects, particularly those considered sensitive, in the museum's collections.
From the definition of a sensitive object to the relationships that are built between the MEG and representatives of the communities of origin of these objects, this tour invites you to pause at a selection of objects in the permanent exhibition. Whether these objects are on display, removed or returned, you will also have the opportunity to participate in this dialogue and understand what is currently happening in the MEG's collections.
What are the issues at stake in this dialogue? Who are the people initiating or taking part in this dialogue? How does this change museum practices?
