Exhibition: Visa for Asia - Louise Weiss, Travel Journal 1949-1958

Dive into a journey through Asia through the eyes of Louise Weiss, an engaged figure who stated: "The journalist does not write history, he participates in it."

The exhibition takes the form of a travel journal and traces her stays in Japan, Korea, and China between October and November 1949, then her return to these same countries in 1958.

These trips took place during a period rich in political and historical upheavals, which you can rediscover thanks to the unprecedented documentary collection she bequeathed to the museum. A unique opportunity to understand her commitment and her role in Asian history.
