Drawing on a little-known history in France, the exhibition honors three women who each reappropriated the codes of anthropology to emancipate themselves and become key activist and artistic figures of the 20th century.
Through the portraits of novelist Zora Neale Hurston (1891-1960), journalist Eslanda Goode Robeson (1895-1965) and dancer Katherine Dunham (1909-2006), the exhibition explores a different approach to anthropology. Through their daring and innovative approaches, these three African-American personalities were able to adopt a different stance from that of white anthropologists, and thus write a different history of the discipline.
