Project Description

Starting with the political shift to the right spectrum that Austria took under the government of Sebastian Kurz and H.C. Strache, I started in 2018 to comment on political events in Austria by using typography. The result was a large number of images, which ultimately appeared in the form of three self-published brochures in a small edition. Volume 1 deals with topics such as intolerance, social coldness, cultural impoverishment, xenophobia and anti-semitism; Volume 2 deals with the Ibiza video and its aftermath; Volume 3 with the Chat scandal that still is subject to the Austrian Corruption Prosecutor's Office. Although sometimes exaggerated ironically, these are contemporary documents that draw a disastrous image of Austrian politics.
