Alexander Savko's 'Heile, heile Welt' Exhibition at Galerie Paula Böttcher Berlin

From November 29, 2002, to March 1, 2003, Galerie Paula Böttcher in Berlin showcased Alexander Savko's exhibition 'Heile, heile Welt,' which presented altered historical photographs. Savko creatively integrated Teletubbies characters into images from the Nazi era, producing screen prints enhanced with additional color layers. One notable piece features SS officers, including Heinrich Himmler, near the Dachau concentration camp alongside Teletubbies Po and Laa-Laa. Other works juxtapose these characters with Hitler, Mussolini, and scenes of concentration camps and executions. The exhibition's title, drawn from a German children's song, starkly contrasts with its unsettling themes. Critic Ellen Handler Spitz discussed Savko's art in 'Mirroring Evil – Nazi Imagery / Recent Art' (2002), situating it within a larger discourse on Nazi imagery.
