We are delighted to invite you to Coldwar Steve: The International Exhibition of the People in the Soho Poly Basement.
The idea behind this exhibition is unashamedly democratic, featuring 23 fantastic works from an artist who has been called ‘The Breugel of Brexit’. We are long-time fans of his work and are really pleased to be able to host this in the Soho Poly Basement. We are showing this in tandem with, and as a complement to, the exhibition ‘You, Me and Coldwar Steve meets the Outside World’ which our comrades at The Social have on until the end of October. Some of you may have been along to the venue in September 2021 for our first collaboration with The Social, ‘polysocial’.
The follow up to the hit debut 'A Brief History of the World (1953-2018)' is a high resolution, free to download and display exhibition for the people. The entire exhibition will be hosted on a public link for anyone to download and put up anywhere they choose. The exhibition could run in your local library, a pub, front room, back garden, doctors surgery, music venue, or even a gallery.
This is very much in the spirit of the Soho Poly Project, a project that seeks to disrupt your day with culture and has hosted theatre, music, films, talks and other disruptive events. Visit our Centre for Law, Society and Popular Culture projects page for new, upcoming projects and events.
