Paris's Grevin wax museum gets ready to reopen after renovation

Description

Paris's Grevin wax museum is preparing to reopen after its first major renovation in more than 15 years. Rather than "selfie rows" of famous faces, the museum's CEO Yves Delhommeau explains that visitors will now be encouraged to "go back in time" and immerse themselves in historical scenes from prehistoric France to the present day.

  • The Quai Branly Jacques Chirac Museum in Paris explores Asian martial arts

    Paris (France), Sep 28 (EFE) .- (Camera: Mario García Sánchez) Monks, samurai and giants enter the Quai Branly Jacques Chirac Museum in Paris this Tuesday through an exhibition that explores the mythology and practice of the Asian martial arts from classical times to pop culture.FOOTAGE FROM THE 'LAST COMBAT' EXHIBITION, AT THE QUAI BRANLY JACQUES CHIRAC MUSEUM, PARIS.SOUNDBITES FROM EXHIBITION CURATOR JULIEN ROUSSEAU AND ASIAN FILM SPECIALIST STÉPHANE DU MESNILDOT.Translations:Rousseau: "It is an exhibition that deals with the subject of martial arts, a very popular subject. Asian martial arts are now well known and are very globalized, and they go back to fiction, to the cinema of course, through figures such as Bruce Lee".Du Mesnildot: "Bruce Lee is obviously the mythical figure of martial arts. He was the one who popularized the term kung-fu. I don't think there is an actor who has had such a rich iconography as him. We can go to India, Africa, Russia Or anywhere in the world with a Bruce Lee photo and people will recognize him. So at that level I think he's comparable to Charlie Chaplin."
