Peter Halley - Jablonka Gallery, Koln vintage poster (Hand Signed by Peter Halley) , 1988

A rare 1988 vintage silkscreen exhibition poster by Peter Halley, published for his show at Jablonka Galerie in Cologne, has surfaced on the secondary market. The work is notably hand-signed and dedicated by the artist to fellow artist Bill Radawec, distinguishing it from standard mass-produced exhibition ephemera. Halley, a central figure of the 1980s Neo-Geo movement, is recognized for his 'cell' and 'conduit' paintings that critique social and technological structures.
