Poster Campaign
One integral part of the long-term project “Land of Human Rights” is a poster campaign, developed by < rotor > association for contemporary art. Starting in September 2007, a set of 4 posters is printed on a regular basis. The front side of the posters present works of artists on current human rights issues and on the back side there are short texts of human rights activists, theorists or people affected by human rights. The aim of the campaign is to inform the people about their rights in connection with the human rights and to raise awareness of current human rights issues in a large part of the population.

The posters are displayed for take-away in several cities in Austria and Europe. 

The posters can be downloaded in print format from
www.landofhumanrights.eu

Land of Human Rights
… was a project dealing with the status quo of the human rights in Europe seen from the perspective of visual art. Starting by the end of 2007, over a period of three years analyses and visions of human rights issues in Europe were developed and disseminated in the general public with the means of art. The planned activities – exhibitions inside and outside the gallery space, poster campaigns, media projects, film programmes, theoretical discourse etc – were supposed to reach a broad audience and to make us aware of the following fact: In many respects the observance of human rights is not guaranteed “in front of our doors” too!
