Peter Halley

Peter Halley 1953 Station. 1992. Acrylic, fluorescent acrylic, and Roll-A-Tex on canvas. Twice signed and dated on the reverse of the canvas. 238.8 x 238.5 cm (94 x 93.8 in). • Vibrant, fluorescent colors with a large Roll-A-Tex element: an early, powerfully tactile work executed with extreme technical precision. • Peter Halley rose to fame as a representative of “Neo-Geo,” a celebrated New York art movement of the late 1980s. • His works are abstract representations of the figurative; often the title refers to the concept behind the image, as here with “Station,” which is reminiscent of a subway map. • Other works by the artist are held in international museum collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Tate Gallery, London; the Städel Museum, Frankfurt am Main; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. The work is registered in the artist’s archive. We are grateful to the Peter Halley Studio for the kind assistancet. PROVENANCE: Jablonka Galerie, Cologne. Private collection.
