Rapa Nui, Espace Fondation EDF



I am not too sure about what has been attracting me to the Easter Island for years. I know I will visit the place one day. I actually nearly did once but I realised it was the wrong time of the year and settled on Alaska instead. It is a barren land with hardly anything to see and I am usually not particularly attracted by islands but something fascinates me with Rapa Nui. It probably is its inaccessibility and remoteness. Or it is its famous stone giants. Or maybe one of the most intriguing ways of writing, the Rongorongo. It is all there (physically, suggested or documented) at the moment at this very instructive exhibition that is taking place at the Fondation EDF, in the 7th Arrondissement until the 1st of March 2009. A must see.
