AMERICA, IT’S ALSO OUR HISTORY!

The exhibition is built up chronologically as well as thematically to draw a large history of transatlantic relationship regarding politics, economics, demographics, culture or human relationships.

The exhibition is structured around four movements. Firstly European America introduces the visitor to the very first Europeans that set foot into the "New World" and helped build the new State.

The second movement, American America, shows how the New World freed itself from European bonds.

The third movement, American Europe, evolves around the fact that the Americans came to the rescue, two times indeed, of a Europe that was at the time divided by global conflicts that it couldn't escape from. Fascinated by the GI's and Hollywood, the western part of Europe becomes more American, but that doesn't mean that the supremacy of Uncle Sam is accepted by the whole world without complaint.

The fourth and final movement, Europe and America, is in fact uncovering itself before our eyes. It is the period of the fall of the Berlin Wall and a time in which an America more powerful than ever and a Europe in search of its unity, try to redefine their relationship.

An exhibition that reunites savoir-faire and technology. An exhibition that is primarily educational, that uses the past to better understand the present and to help build the future.
