Musee du quai Branly

This museum that opened several years ago was new to us, and a wonderful visit. The permanent collection of what I guess would be called primitive art was full of really interesting finds. The only odd thing was that it seemed like a miner's helmet with a lamp attached would have been helpful as the museum lighting was so low, perhaps to protect the objects, no other reason is apparent. A temporary exhibition, Le Siècle du Jazz, was an exceptional treat of old films, paintings, performance posters, sheet music, and odds and ends that can`t be categorized. One other comment - the architecture of the museum is justification for a visit by itself, eccentric and worth a smile.
