Until October 8th, 2018, the Guimet Museum puts the spotlight on rice cultivation with a photographic exhibition entitled “Rice Lands”. 91 presented prints on the theme of rice reveal rice landscapes, 19th and 20th century plantations in China and Japan and scenes from everyday life. These pictures bear witness to an alliance between man and nature. Rice entered the heart of Asian cultures in the Neolithic Age, and since then it has deeply permeated their identity. The retrospective also reveals numerous human activities around this millennial cereal, from its cultivation to its transformation, until its consumption. This event is only a few minutes walk away from the Green Hotels Paris, the Eiffel Trocadéro and the Gavarni, a few steps from the Trocadéro.

Exhibition “Rice Land”, from June 6th to October 8th, 2018.
Open every day except on Tuesdays from 10a.m. to 6p.m.
Full rate: €11,50 / Concession: €8,50.
