Matali Crasset, Peter Halley A Rebours, Peter Halley Invites Matali Crasset
Overview
This is the first in a planned series of collaborative undertakings at the gallery combining art, design and architecture.
From the 15th of September to 13th of October, Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac is delighted to present the first exhibition teaming an artist represented by the gallery, Peter Halley, with a designer, Matali Crasset.
The painter and designer have discovered a number of strong affinities, and Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac has taken the initiative of encouraging a collaborative undertaking by the pair and, by the same token, of opening its space to design. The gallery will be producing an exclusive edition of pieces by Matali Crasset designed specially for this project.
In the main room, Peter Halley will be exhibiting a series of paintings conceived specially to interact with Matali Crasset's wall drawings. In the project room, Matali plans to install four of her pieces, around which Peter Halley will paint a mural composition.
This is the first in a planned series of collaborative undertakings at the gallery combining art, design and architecture, for each of which Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac will produce an exclusive new series.
