Abstract

From 15 October 2013 to 26 January 2014, a spectacular exhibition called Kanak: l’art est une parole (Kanak: art is a word), curated by Emmanuel Kasarhérou and Roger Boulay, was held in the Garden Gallery of the Musée du quai Branly.1 If the museum’s permanent galleries have been accused of sacrificing ethnographic particularity to a timeless universalizing aesthetic,2 temporary exhibitions such as this help redress the imbalance.
