From the mid-1950s on, Austria became a popular destination for primarily male students from abroad, since it was politically neutral and a relatively affordable place to study. In Graz, their numbers rose so rapidly \u2013 especially at the University of Technology \u2013 that by the end of the 1950s only about one third of the students enrolled were from Austria. Students from Iran were one of the largest groups at the universities in Graz.
\nThe tabloid press provided almost weekly coverage of the glamorous lifestyle of Shah the early 1960s on, however, Iranian students in Graz conveyed a very different image of Iran and were vehemently opposed to the political system there. Many Iranian students returned to Iran after their studies in the 1970s. A number of them were accompanied by their Austrian spouses.<\/p>\n

This exhibition examines a previously almost unknown chapter in Graz\u2019s post-war migration history, exploring the everyday life of the Iranians in Graz, how they studied, started families and their cultural participation from the 1950s to the 1970s, as well as the protests against the political system in their home country.<\/p>\n

An exhibition in collaboration with XENOS and Graz Museum.<\/p>\n
