The geometrically partitioned #dayglo paintings by @peterhalleystudio offer a pointed critique of modernist grids and straight lines. @robertasmithnyt describes these paintings as operating like "diagrams of battery cells with conduits or prison cells with barred windows, (that is electrical or social systems), while their power fluorescent colors come from somewhere beyond art."
Peter Halley, "Orange Prison," acrylic, DayGlo acrylic and Roll-A-Tex on canvas, in 2 parts, 30 x 30 in., 2011.
