關於
The Musée d'ethnographie de Neuchâtel (MEN) is a museum of ethnography in Neuchâtel, Switzerland established in 1904. The collections consist of 50,000 objects from all regions of the world, with about half from Africa. The MEN is well known for its museology of the rupture (muséololgie de la rupture), initiated by Jacques Hainard in the 1980s. This exhibition policy aims at questioning the objects' meaning and the museum's social role.
Starting in 2015, major renovations were undertaken on the museum's buildings. The historical part was renovated first, followed by the temporary exhibitions building, ending in 2020.
Since 2017 the reference exhibition is L'impermanence des choses, centered on the museum's collections.
