24 March 2023, Saxony, Leipzig: At the "Grand Beauty" salon in Robert Koch Park in Leipzig's west, a young woman has her fingernails painted by makeup artist Grey Castano, who comes from Venezuela. Performance artist Frauke Frech founded the salon several years ago as an art project and used it to advertise in several German states as a meeting place for people from different cultures. For the past year, she and her beauty experts, most of whom have an immigrant background, have been able to realize their beauty project in a small building in the Grünau district of Leipzig provided by the city. Every Friday afternoon, guests can have their hair done, makeup applied or receive advice at the salon free of charge, meet people from other cultures or enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and conversations (to dpa " ") Photo: Waltraud Grubitzsch/dpa (Photo by Waltraud Grubitzsch/picture alliance via Getty Images)
