Cold War Steve aka Christopher Spencer is an artist from Birmingham, England who has been making surreal, satirical and hilarious photomontage since 2016.
Enclosed in this esteemed tome you will find a land of hereditary weirdos and despicable world leaders; contemptible party-hosting and disastrous decision-making; delicious downfalls and nonsensical uprisings.
The only path to sanity is through the most scathing of cosmic cynicism and commentary; thankfully, this annual provides just that.
Featuring a congress of coruscating collages, as well as contributions from the revered James O'Brien, John Sweeney, Stewart Lee, Sheena Patel, Jason Williamson, Kit de Waal, Neville Southall and Roy, this volume is a fitting antidote to the disgraces and travesties of the last year and beyond.
Multiple exhibitions, books, commissions for the National Galleries of Scotland, Whitworth in Manchester, Birmingham Museum and Gallery, giant billboard installations at Glastonbury Festival and a TIME magazine cover have all followed.
In 2020 his first jigsaw Hellscape was shortlisted for the Design Museum’s Design of the Year Award and his book A Prat’s Progress nominated for the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation Prize. The feature length documentary – Cold War Steve Meets The Outside World – about his work, was made with Bafta winning director Kieran Evans. The film was released in October 2020 on Sky Arts and the featured outdoor exhibition of the same name was nominated for a South Bank Award in 2021.
Cold War Steve’s artwork has been a lifeline to many in these dark times.
