Peter Halley Art

American, b. 1953
Peter Halley is an American artist known for his distinctive geometric paintings that explore the intersection of technology, society, and architecture. Born in 1953 in New York City, Halley developed an early interest in art and went on to study at Yale University, where he received his Master of Fine Arts degree in 1978.Halley's work is characterized by vibrant, flat colors and repetitive, abstract forms, often resembling circuit boards or prison cells. His paintings reflect his fascination with the effects of technology on human interaction and the isolation of modern society. Halley coined the term "prison cells" to describe the confined spaces and social structures that he believes have been created by technology and urban architecture. Throughout his career, Halley has exhibited his work internationally, gaining recognition for his unique style and thought-provoking concepts. He has also been involved in art criticism and writing, contributing to various publications and expanding the discourse on contemporary art. Today, Peter Halley's art continues to captivate audiences, provoking discussions about the impact of technology on our lives and the nature of human connections in an increasingly digital world. His contributions have made him an influential figure in the field of contemporary art.

Limited Edition ceramic plate Uovo In Raviolo Alla Bergese, San Domenico NY S/N
By Peter Halley
Located in New York, NY
Peter Halley Uovo In Raviolo Alla Bergese - San Domenico - New York, NY, ca. 2000 Limited Edition Ceramic Plate. Artist signature fired into the plate on the underside and numbered 166 from the edition of 510. 10 3/10 inches diameter by 1/4 inch height Makes a terrific gift. This beautiful, limited edition, extremely rare, plate signed and numbered bowl/plate was handmade in southern Italy by master artisans near Vietri sul Mare. The edition is 510 - but the reason one rarely sees this on the market is because only about half that amount were said to have been created, and the remaining ones were lost after 9/11; the plan was to create a second batch after these sold out. That was in the year 2000. Then in 2001 terrorists struck the World Trade Center. All marketing efforts ceased. It is not even known if the other plates from this edition are still around - but they are rarely found on the marketplace. It was designed by the internationally renowned American artist Peter Halley. In 2000, Buon Ricordo...

Halley/Kozik

Located in New York, NY
Peter Halley, Frank Kozik Halley/Kozik, 1997 Offset Lithograph. Hand signed by both Peter Halley and Frank Kozik on the lower front. Edition 75/100 22 1/2 × 35 inches Unframed This color lithograph was created on the occasion of the Peter Halley and Frank Kozik exhibition at Wooster Gardens from May 3 - June 14, 1997. Hand signed by both artists on the lower front and is annotated as a study proof: S/P 75/100. Frank Kozik was born in Madrid, Spain in 1962 . At the age of 14 he moved to the United States and settled in Austin, Texas. Credited with single handedly reviving the “lost” art of the concert poster, his creative career rose largely out of his enthusiasm for Austin’s growing underground punk rock scene in the mid-eighties. Starting with black and white flyers for friends’ bands posted on telephone poles, his reputation grew as an artist whose work was graphically compelling as well as culturally gripping. This exhibition was an installation featuring an eight-year survey of punk rock posters...

Peter Halley at Sonnabend Gallery, New York (Hand Signed by Peter Halley)

Peter Halley Peter Halley, Sonnabend Gallery, New York (Hand Signed by Peter Halley), 1989 Offset lithograph poster (hand signed by Peter Halley) 28 × 26 inches Unframed Alpha 137 Gallery is honored to offer this historic offset lithograph of American artist Peter Halley's 1989 exhibition at the legendary Sonnabend Gallery in New York which the artist hand signed in black marker. Scroll down for a photograph of our director Nadine Witkin with the artist. Below is Peter Halley's official biography. What it doesn't mention is that Andy Warhol famously painted his portrait in 1986! Peter Halley is that legendary. According to Halley, he didn't realize until after Warhol's death that the polaroids Warhol took of him with his famous "big shot" camera were made into an original painting. Warhol's painting of Peter Halley was included in the recent Andy Warhol retrospective "Andy Warhol - from A to B and Back Again" at the Whitney. PETER HALLEY BIOGRAPHY Peter Halley, born 1953, New York City, is an American artist who came to prominence as a central figure of the Neo-Conceptualist movement of the 1980s. His paintings redeploy the language of geometric abstraction to explore the organization of social space in the digital era. Since the 1980s, Halley’s lexicon has included three elements: “prisons” and “cells,” connected by “conduits,” which are used in his paintings to explore the technologically determined space and pathways that regulate daily life. Using fluorescent color and Roll-a-Tex, a commercial paint additive that provides readymade texture, Halley embraces materials that are anti-naturalistic and commercially manufactured. In the mid 1990s Halley pioneered the use of wall-sized digital prints in his site-specific installations. He has executed installations at Museo Nivola, Orani, Sardinia (2021); Greene Naftali...
