The exhibition explores the crossroads between surrealism, ethnology and archaeology during the interwar period in France, focusing on the question of what to do with objects. The experimental approach of the artists and literary revisers of the period gave rise to a new perception of objects and places. They challenged the very concept of the museum by asking: What is art? What makes an object a work of art?
