A note, the ticket allows access to various exhibitions of the Museum of Man. The Musée de l’Homme inaugurated a rich, surprising and instructive exhibition on 21 February. “La Saga de l’homme” is an exhibition in different stages... to be held progressively as the construction of a new museum takes place. It offers a perspective on the history of Man and the major questions that interest humans today.
“L’Homme exposé” is the first episode of a saga that will continue to be written until the opening of the new museum, which will cover the history of Man, his environment and his future.
This episode relates the history of anthropological studies over several hundred years: the history of those who have attempted to describe and understand the nature of Man.
Various sections (Imaginary men, The original humans, Human communities, Human individuals, Of men and monkeys and The nature of Man) illustrated by a sumptuous collection of prehistoric and anthropological items (over 500 rare or previously unseen objects) will give visitors an opportunity to reflect on the basic question: Who is Man?
The exhibition is a discovery of humanity, from the way early Man imagined himself to be to the facts that we now know.

This is the story of a navigator, a dreamer who enthusiastically and courageously
braved the the seas and oceans day after day, sails to the wind, in search of
beauty and the absolute. When the sea was calm, this sailor set about painting,
drawing, or taking photographs to recount his amazing journey to us. It is the
fabulous story of Titouan Lamazou!...
The Musée de l’Homme invites us to discover the wonderful portraits
of women by Titouan Lamazou during his travels over five continents. Six years
journeying in search of his muse, is summed up in 200 sketches, photos, paintings
and texts.
In the beauty of his models, and his art works, Titouan Lamazou shows us that
he felt even more inspired by his many encounters across the world than by the
crossing of nations and frontiers.
We are therefore able to become acquainted with young female Chinese rock stars,
a very made-up Brazilian actress from 1997, a princess from Bali, a mother of
five children, etc. It is then a veritable artistic world tour that our generous-hearted
sailor proposes. Not to be missed!
