Christian Perdix shows in Help Me Yeah, I'm Stayin' Alive – a variety of paintings from the last two years that address post-9/11 decisions and their global ripple effects, altering the Middle East and Europe. With a tinge of pop, viewers will witness torture in secret prisons, the glamorous' Assad family and Marine Le Pen as the defender of the Christian Occident.Christian Perdix zeigt in Help Me Yeah, I'm Stayin' Alive verschiedene Gemälden aus den letzten zwei Jahren, die sich mit Entscheidungen nach dem 11. September und ihren globalen Auswirkungen befassen, und damit den Nahen Osten und Europa grundlegend verändern. Mit einem Hauch von Pop werden die Betrachter Zeuge von Folter in geheimen Gefängnissen, der glamourösen Familie Assad und Marine Le Pen als Verteidigerin des christlichen Abendlandes.
