Salon Rosi Braidotti

Totally true to eighteenth-century tradition, co-curator Rosi Braidotti welcomes inspiring guests to her salon. With Galanterie as the festival theme, she also cannot ignore Frederick the Great. With Marian Füssel from the University of Göttingen, she talks about the warlord and art lover, adored and despised, and with a long and sometimes dubious influence beyond the grave.
