For the cultural tips for new americans project, alina & jeff bliumis compile advice that would help any new arrival to assimilate and understand their new home.


Project statement:

"we are taking tips from published guides, public forums, streets questionnaires, social websites and friends. Cultural tips for new americans project could be helpful not only to new arrivals, but also bring a fresh perspective and humorous look at the indigenous culture of americans."

alina & jeff bliumis are a multidisciplinary new york based artist team, working together since 2000.

They were both born abroad, but have been living in the united states for over twenty years and they often play with ideas centered on cultural foreignness, social misfits and national identity in their work.

Their works have been internationally exhibited and are in various private and public collections, including the moscow museum of modern art (russia), bat-yam museum (israel), the saatchi collection (uk) and the victoria and albert museum (uk).
