The Casal Solleric will be one of the venues hosting the exhibition of New York painter Peter Halley, one of the most prominent names in contemporary art. This exhibition, which will open in Palma on 22 March 2025 and will run until 25 May, follows its showing at the National Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid.
The Ajuntament de Palma, through its Department of Culture and the Casal Solleric, has collaborated in organising this exhibition, which first opens in Madrid on 18 October 2024 and will be on display there until 19 January 2025.
Peter Halley at the Casal Solleric
The exhibition at Casal Solleric will offer visitors the chance to enjoy 20 works by the artist, spanning from 1985 to 2024, including some of his most iconic pieces such as Prison (1985), Fur Trade (1994), and Gravity (2006). Recent works such as Half Magic (2018) and The High Note (2020) will also be on display, allowing viewers to appreciate Halley’s evolution throughout his prolific career.
Cultural collaboration between Madrid and Palma
This exhibition is part of a strategic collaboration between the Ajuntament de Palma and the National Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, strengthening the Casal Solleric’s presence on the international art scene.
Although this is not the first time the artist has presented his work in Spain, the last major institutional exhibition was in 1992 at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía. Since then, Halley has continued to establish himself as a central figure in contemporary abstract art, particularly known for his bold fluorescent colours and geometric compositions that anticipate the digital era.
