Description

Gmunden podcaster and science and culture journalist Elisabeth J. Nöstlinger launched the "Eros der Sommerfrische" series last year, reinventing the art salon that was common at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. This year's event in the Wappensaal at Seeschloss Ort has the motto "Resilience: Strength even in the face of headwinds" and sees itself as a salon of science and art.


Eros, the cunning god, reignites the passion for discourse. What makes him strong is what makes others despair. But what makes us resilient?

Resilience is the power to overcome difficult situations, to stand up to impositions and insults. But who knows the secrets of not sinking in stormy times? Artists have the corresponding sensitivity, sense of life and spirit of resistance. With the power of imagination, creativity and the ability to live with uncertainty, they boost the future.
Psychologist Tatjana Schnell presents the latest scientific findings on this subject
and biochemist and bestselling author Christina Berndt knows what makes the soul strong.
