Peter Halley

Peter Halley (b. 1953, New York) figured prominently in the Neo-Conceptual art movement during the 1980s with his signature geometric paintings. For over 30 years, he has continued to use geometric abstraction in architectural-scale installations that include not only paintings, but also algorithmic flow charts and digital prints. His work has been presented in solo exhibitions around the world at venues such as the Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt, Germany, in 2016; the Lever House Art Collection, New York, in 2018; and the Galerie Forsblom, Stockholm, from February to March 2019. A founding publisher of index Magazine (1996–2005), Halley has also contributed extensively to art and culture criticism. He has taught at the School of Visual Arts and Columbia University in New York as well as the University of California, Los Angeles, and currently serves as William Leffingwell Professor of Painting and Director of Graduate Studies in Painting/Printmaking at the Yale University School of Art.
