An information label for an artwork is displayed on a plain white wall, positioned vertically with text running upwards. The gray rectangular label details the artwork "En caso de duda, a favor del trabajador. Principio jurídico del Derecho Laboral. Locución latina: IN DUBIO PRO OPERARIO" by artist Karina Granieri (born 1972, based in Buenos Aires), created in 2009. The artwork is described as a 12 x 200 x 6 cm piece made of white neon tube, which received the Second Acquisition Prize at the LXIV National Salon of Rosario in 2010. The text provides context for Granieri's artistic practice, noting her involvement in collectives like Acción Directa and Taller Popular de Serigrafía after Argentina's December 2001 crisis, which responded to social and political transformations. Her work often addresses contemporary societal and artistic issues. This specific piece references the legal principle "In dubio pro operario" (in case of doubt, in favor of the worker) within Labor Law. The artist uses the visual language of luminous advertising signs to highlight an important aspect of employee labor relations, connecting to a 2008 modification of Article 9 of Argentina's Labor Contracts Law (Law 26.428) which reinforced this principle. Below the main label, two QR codes are visible on a smaller white sticker. One QR code is accompanied by a play icon and the text "Video en LSA" (Video in Argentine Sign Language), while the other, partially visible, might be for an audio description. The setting appears to be an art exhibition or museum in Rosario, Argentina.
