God's Entertainment
Cleaning, babysitting, I help in the house – 7 Euro
- Performance
With reference to “Katzelmacher,” the Viennese collective God’s Entertainment deals with the figure and the social situation of the “Gastarbeiter.” The anxieties that Rainer Werner Fassbinder addressed in his 1968 play are still the same some 45 years later. Only now, instead of workers from Italy or Turkey, it is ostensibly the illegal immigrants who are competing with “the Germans” for work. Europe, the former cradle of prosperity, opportunity, and high wages, has become a fortress. The achievements of a century-long process of migration threaten to be overturned. The job market for non-elites is being disputed more than ever. Getting work these days has become like a hustle, you bargain over the price, you do the job, and you get paid. On the next day the search for a new potential employer starts all over again.

Latest information for arrival:
There is currently a construction site on Hallesches Ufer between Wilhelmstraße and Möckernbrücke underground station. There is a divided replacement route for pedestrians (right) and cyclists (left), which are separated by a yellow ground line. The carriageway is narrowed to one lane.
Travelling to HAU2 via U Hallesches Tor:
If you are coming from Hallesches Tor underground station, you will have to use an alternative footpath from Wilhelmstraße / Hallesches Ufer junction, which is separated from the carriageway by a construction fence – the actual footpath is currently closed. Please note: the alternative route is also used by cyclists. Pedestrians should keep to the right. We therefore currently recommend that visually impaired or blind visitors come to the HAU with an accompanying person.
Arrival HAU2 via U Möckernbrücke:
When you leave Möckernbrücke underground station, please stay on the footpath on the canal side until you reach Hallesches Ufer / Großbeerenstraße junction – the opposite side is currently closed due to construction work.
