Esther Eppstein, aka Madame l’Ambassadeur, opened message salon embassy on 2 May 2015 in an interim use on Grubenstrasse in Zurich’s Binz district. Since then, message salon embassy has been stationed in various spaces as a nomadic art project and Madame l’Ambassadeur has been travelling the art world as an ambassador.
message salon embassy invites international artists to Zurich. With Madame l’Ambassadeur, the artists in residence undertake expeditions into the Zurich art scene and publish a zine, which is presented and celebrated at a public event. Madame l’Ambassadeur represents her message salon embassy on research trips or as an invited ambassador in exhibitions and art projects.
