Maatschappij Discordia - Weiblicher Akt 14 Woolf – Zadie - en wij

In 1929, Virginia Woolf gave us an indispensable room for oneself; the groundbreaking essay "A Room of One's Own." In 2026, Maatschappij Discordia invites her to their room, their salon, in the theatrical space of the Weiblicher Akt, to discuss what it's like to be an artist and a woman. "Weiblicher Akt 14 Woolf – Zadie - and Us" can be seen at Frascati. NB: The end time mentioned is an indication.

Zadie Smith

Another important guest is Zadie Smith. Sadie, as she's actually called, makes us realize again and again that the past still speaks to us and shapes who we are. And also that looking at that past can offer a different perspective on our own time. Times change, but certain conversations must continue. Especially with these women.

Zadie: "I admire Beckett and I respect Joyce. But I love Woolf. When I'm having a hard time, I reread her diaries, and that helps me." Us: "Oh, tell me."
