Palais de Rumine (Lausanne, Switzerland)
This international conference will take place on January 28-29, 2021 in the framework of the scientific program of the exhibition The Exotic? Switzerland Looking Outward in the Age of Enlightenment, which will run from 24 September 2020 to 28 February 2021 at the Palais de Rumine.
It proposes to revisit the heritage that has been appropriated, whatever its nature (zoology, geology, botany, archaeology, history, history of art and ethnology), through inclusive collaborations in Switzerland and elsewhere. Please find more information in the documents linked below.
This conference is organized in partnership with the University of Bern, the Swiss National Science Federation, the Ethnography Museum of Geneva, the Ethnography Museum of Neuchâtel and the Palais de Rumine.
