Invitation to view the premises, Madame l’Ambassadeur will be present.
message salon embassy is both an artist residency and a platform and meeting place for the Zurich art scene, which is increasingly venturing away from the city centre and into as yet undeveloped neighbourhoods.
The artists in residence are invited by Esther Eppstein to spend eleven weeks at a time in the message salon embassy Zurich North. The studio is a workspace and meeting place, but also the starting point of the expedition. Madame l’Ambassadeur and the artists in residence invite the neighbourhood and art scene to the studio in Zurich North for presentations, artist talks, workshops and communal meals. At the end, the artists in residence publish a message salon embassy zine and a party is organised.
With Madame l’Ambassadeur, the artists in residence explore the networks and the pulse of Zurich’s cultural scene, the neighbourhood in the up-and-coming quarter in Zurich North, as well as living together in the newly built cooperative.
