Jean Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 Too lazy to translate it but this is for Ian B and all who come to Paris between now and end of January. Temporary exhibition: Musée des Arts Premiers http://token.alldiscussion.net/t1795-ex ... uai-branly Quote
christianmalterre Posted October 13, 2011 Report Posted October 13, 2011 Jean malheureusement j´ai pas de nom d'utilisateur;ni mot de passe? ...donc faire? LOL! Amicalement! Christian Quote
IanB Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Jean, Thank you for the first glimpse of the catalogue. I hope the exhibition goes well. I was involved in writing a section on horse equipment for the catalogue - an interesting exercise since nobody seems to have written much on the subject in English. Whether I will be able to make the trip to Paris I do not know at this stage. Ian Bottomley Quote
IanB Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Thierry, My profuse apologies. It was you who posted the catalogue not Jean. Ian Quote
Jean Posted October 14, 2011 Author Report Posted October 14, 2011 Ian, If you can make it to Paris, just tell me, you'll be entitled for a free meal and beverage. If you want me to take a catalog, just let me know. I have reached an agreement with my HR manager and shall stop working on the 31st of December. I'll be free in January but can take an extra day before year end. Quote
IanB Posted October 14, 2011 Report Posted October 14, 2011 Jean, I am so grateful for your offer but at the moment I do not know how things are going to work out. I have been promised copies of the catalogue but again I thank you. Ian Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted October 15, 2011 Report Posted October 15, 2011 How many is 'une quarantaine' ? (40-some objects???) Quote
Jean Posted October 15, 2011 Author Report Posted October 15, 2011 40 days Piers, used in the past to keep passengers on board when there was an epidemy or 40 + objects Quote
Bugyotsuji Posted October 16, 2011 Report Posted October 16, 2011 40 days Piers, used in the past to keep passengers on board when there was an epidemy or 40 + objects Ah, ...naturellement! Merci, Jean. Quote
Kwairyo Posted October 21, 2011 Report Posted October 21, 2011 Hello Everybody, I think there is a misunderstanding about this announcement. A major exhibition at the Musée du Quai Branly will be held from 8th November until January, but the first lines of the text (above) relate to a parallel exhibition at the Espace 4 gallery in Paris, which will present 40 rare objects from 4 until November 26. The announcement was part of the last newsletter of the gallery, but the poster is the one of the Museum's exhibition. I'll post a new topic about the exhibition of the gallery. Regards, Kwairyo Quote
Thierry BERNARD Posted November 21, 2011 Report Posted November 21, 2011 Some pictures from this exhibition https://picasaweb.google.com/111034403517161566011/Samourai?feat=email Quote
Curgan Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Thanks Thierry, your pics were a consolation for those of us who can't attent Quote
Rich Thomas Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Thanks Thierry, great pics; fantastic. cheers Rich T Quote
IanB Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Thierry, I am so grateful for your efforts in taking all those pictures. Thank you. I was annoyed I could not attend the opening. I noted a good number of old friends and favourites in the exhibition -particularly the famous tengu armour, formally in Arashiyama Museum in Kyoto. I note it has been given a new set of feathers in its sashimono - the old ones were very bedraggled. Ian Bottomley Quote
uwe Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Thanks for sharing these wonderful pics Thierry I`ll try to visit this awesome exhibition in January Uwe Quote
estcrh Posted November 23, 2011 Report Posted November 23, 2011 Thanks to everyone for the information on this exhibit, if anyone happens to go see it I would appreciate any detailed images of the horse related items if possible. Quote
Jean Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Posted November 23, 2011 Hi Ian, Did you get your catalogues? Quote
Jean Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Posted November 24, 2011 Thierry, Is it allowed to bring in a camera and take pictures? Quote

myochin Posted December 7, 2011 Report Posted December 7, 2011 How come Canada gets to see the exhibition for 11 months while Paris only gets it for 3 months ?? ... Jealous ! LOL! I guess you all saw the nice picture of Thierry https://picasaweb.google.com/1110344035 ... 0011801170 Paul. Quote
uwe Posted December 7, 2011 Report Posted December 7, 2011 Hi Paul, please don`t forget me. You know, the "Shin Kacchushi Meikan" translation project Uwe Quote
DirkO Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 FWIW: a little tip for the European collectors: I don't know if this applies to all your home countries, but if you use amazon.de (Germany) they usually have free shipping. I've used it on many occasions and especially if the books are quite heavy (as is in this case) it can save you a lot of money. You can easily order the English version on the German site and you can use your .co.uk or .com Amazon login just as easy on the German Amazon. Quote
estcrh Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 I would like to thank Thierry Bernard for giving me permission to upload his images of the samurai armor exhibit in Paris to the Wiki commons image repository. I have started a category on Wiki commons for all the images from the exhibit that have been properly licensed including Thierry's and I am in the process of transferring Thierry's images there. There are of course a lot of images on the internet but most are not licensed for legal use by the public with the exception of Wiki commons. Without images such as this the only record of this exhibit will be the catalog. It is unfortunate that more people do not take advantage of this excellent resource for the permanent storage of their images of nihonto and other Japanese, samurai related items. Here is a link to the category:Category:Photographs from the "Samurai: Armor of the Warrior" exhibit http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Categ ... 22_exhibit Quote
