About the artist

Peter Halley was born in New York in 1953. His earlier works, produced in the 1980’s, were signature Day-Glo, hard-edged paintings that acted as metaphors for the way in which social spaces have become delineated  within the proliferating abstract nature of the technological  world we now live in - as prisons or cells. As well as producing numerous site-specific installations for institutions such as The State University of New York, Buffalo (1998) and The Banco Suisso d’Italia Art Collection, Turin (2003), Halley has also written extensively about art and culture throughout his career and  received the Frank Jewett Mather Award in 2001 from the College Art Association in the U.S.A for his critical writing. Halley was also Director of Graduate Studies in Painting and Printmaking at the Yale University School of Art from 2002 to 2011, lecturing at The Art Institute of Chicago and the American Academy in Rome among other institutions.

Halley lives and works in New York, USA and his works are held in the collections of MoMA, The Tate, Guggenheim and Art Plural Gallery.
