Peter Halley, born 1953 in New York, lives and works in New York. Halley´s compositions are more than geometric abstractions. His cells and conduits represent the diagrammatic regulatory practices of modern social life, giving visual form to organizational systems that we find in everything from computer chips to corporations, buildings and airports. »In this new pair of prints, I have, for the first time, begun to work with metallic and pearlescent paints I´m using in my new paintings. Employing these shimmering hues, whose appearence is so easily altered by the subtleties of their application, has been a true test of the printmaker´s art.«
