were printedpages torn from the research carried out in Europe by the man from Bogota  "Latin American Center for Geographical Studies" (Known by the initials CLIG) who in 1902 traveled to study the local population. These sheets were distributed to visitors to theGuimet Museum of Asian Arts in Paris. At the entrance to the museum  we distributed the facsimile document that reproduced  some pages of the ethnographic-anthropological research carried out by the CLIG_cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b-1358 in the main European cities at the end of the 19th century, beginning of the 20th century.

A document whose cryptic content would be destined  to serve as an interruption of the visit  to this museum, son of European colonial thought of the time. The distribution of the leaflet was accompanied by the preparation of a survey on the term "exoticism" and the city of Bogotá.
