After years of violent conquest, the \u201cPax Mongolica\u201d allowed for commercial, scientific, and artistic relations to flourish between the East and West, allowing for an unparalleled period of exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the rare exhibition of objects&nbsp;<strong>from Mongolia\u2019s national collections \u2013 including a large number of national treasures, complemented by objects from major French and European museums<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;this exhibition offers an insight into the history of this great empire of Chinggis Khaan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This exhibition was made with the support of the&nbsp;<strong>Mongol government, through its loan<\/strong>&nbsp;of priceless items from its national collections, and notably from the new&nbsp;<strong>Chinggis Khaan National Museum<\/strong>. This show has been organized through&nbsp;<strong>the combined forces of Presidents of the two Republics \u2013 Mongolia and France \u2013 &nbsp;<\/strong>and has been awarded the distinction of being an \u201c<strong>exhibition of national interest<\/strong>\u201d by the French Ministry of Culture. More than just an exhibition on the military glory of one of history\u2019s greatest conquerors,&nbsp;<strong>this show will take a new approach to showing how the Mongol changed the world.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through its interactions between its countless conquered territories and neighbouring nations \u2013 from China to the Mediterranean \u2013 and through the control and protection of the silk routes during the Pax Mongolica, the Mongol Empire allowed for numerous transformations to take place in all fields \u2013 economic, artistic, scientific, cultural, and religious \u2013 thanks to the wilfully implemented principle of free trade by the Khan emperors, in what was one of the great globalizations of the medieval era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition will explore many of these profound changes, particularly for our own societies. One well-known figure sums up what it was like to encounter the Mongol: Marco Polo. His book,&nbsp;<em>The Travels of Marco Polo<\/em>, was widely read in all European courts at the time. The Mongol Empire eventually collapsed, partly due to its sheer size, but also to the effects of the Black Plague. One hundred and fifty years later, one man would seek to reconnect with this desired and distant horizon \u2013 but to no avail: Christopher Columbus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>This exhibition will engage with visitors in many ways.<\/strong><br><strong>Atmospheric sounds&nbsp;<\/strong>will be played throughout the exhibition to take visitors on a voyage of discovery.&nbsp;<strong>Several films have been<\/strong>&nbsp;produced that focus on key themes, such as the Silk Road, the figure of Chinggis Khaan, and the Mongol new cartographic vision of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of&nbsp;<strong>touch-screens&nbsp;<\/strong>will allow visitors to browse through documents and texts on objects \u2013 many of which are exceptional in terms of their multicultural origins. And, perhaps the pinnacle of the exhibition:&nbsp;<strong>a projected, life-size, nearly 3-metre tall, headstone&nbsp;<\/strong>accompanied by&nbsp;<strong>visual and sound effects. It will surely&nbsp;<\/strong>be one of the exhibition\u2019s highlights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It will also be accompanied by a&nbsp;<strong>diverse cultural program, where visitors can&nbsp;<\/strong>discover contemporary Mongolia. Events focusing on cinema, contemporary and folk music, storytelling, dance, popular culture, traditional Mongol games, cuisine, calligraphy, history, literature, and photography will make for a&nbsp;<strong>cultural season to remember.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\t<\/div><\/section>\n\t<section class=\"VAN22_NOTE VAN22_BG_gris\"><div class=\"VAN22_LIMIT_SECTION\"><p>Curator: Jean-Paul Desroches,
