Opening of message salon embassy on Grubenstrasse in Zurich!
message salon embassy is a new experimental format that operates close to the action and from within the scene, an “artist-run artist residence” that generates networking and exchange of ideas. The invited artists meet people and discover spaces in Zurich, finding stimulation, inspiration and new friends. With their host Madame l’Ambassadeur, they explore the city and the art scene. Discussions, meetings and presentations take place on the premises of message salon embassy. Before leaving, the guests leave behind an artistic statement: a small publication, a message salon embassy fanzine.
Idea, concept, organisation: Esther Eppstein
Logo and graphics: Benjamin Sommerhalder
Artist Talk: Giorgio Iemmolo
message salon embassy staff : Maria Arnold, Nico Sebastian Meyer, Maja Nicolin, Ailine Sophie Morgenrot, Giorgio Iemmolo, Photography Vadim Levin
message salon embassy needs support and offers participation: The friends of message salon embassy invest in the great good of artistic freedom, in the development of artists’ biographies and in the vibrancy and mix of the independent art scene in Zurich. Last but not least, they enable foreign artists to enjoy an inspiring stay in the city of Zurich.
