"Austrians Only"
Project by Andreja Kuluncic

Newspaper advertisements, posters, direct-mail items
At the focus of the project are latent prejudices and the creeping discrimination against foreign workers in Austria.

With top-quality, well-designed job advertisements, 'inferior' jobs for Austrians will be extolled, including all the restrictions and disadvantages with which otherwise mostly migrants see themselves confronted.   IMAGES >

"I would like to raise awareness about the "silence acceptance" of discriminating view on foreign workers by the people who maybe would thing differently if they would be asked, or in any way put in a situation to re-think the commonly accepted view. The migrants are usually seen as "second class" people. The jobs offered to them as well as the labor conditions are unfortunately adequate to the perception the people have about the migrants. The idea of the project is to make job advertisement for only Austrian citizens, with jobs and labor conditions they would never accept for themselves but see as perfect for the "others" (non Austrian)."
