About the artist:

Born in Aberdeen, Scotland, Stephen Hall moved to New York in 1978 and began exhibiting his work in the East Village in the early 80's. Since then his work has been featured in exhibits throughout the US, India, Japan, Korea and Mexico. His work is part of numerous corporate and private collections and has been featured in major motion pictures, music videos and magazines. Mr. Hall has illustrated numerous book covers for internationally published authors. "Red House Mystery" A.A. Milne, "High Rise" J.G. Ballard and "A Can of Worms" by Russell Greenan to name a few. "There are no digital prints, photographs, collage, airbrush or projections involved in my work. The subjects and ambiguous light sources are hand painted rows and rows of acrylic colors or tones, going from dark to light in countless layers. All the patterns are drawn first around a cardboard template upon the background field color and then painted tonally to match the background. Each painting can take anywhere from three to six weeks to execute, depending on the size. I am interested in showing the relationships we all have, whether in time or place. I also try to show the pattern in chaos and, perhaps the overload of information that we are bombarded with in our modern times". - Stephen Hall Solo Exhibitions Westbeth Art Gallery - April 2012 AGallery, New York City (2011) Art Forms Gallery, Redbank, NJ (2006) Limousine Bull, Aberdeen, Scotland Art Forms, Redbank, New Jersey (1995) Viscaya, New York East End Ensemble, New York City Keith Keller Gallery, St Miguel D'Allende Jardin Des Artes, Tokyo Limelight, New York City Helio Galleries, New York City Beulah Land Gallery, New York City Darinka Gallery, New York City Group Exhibitions 'BRINK', Conception Gallery, Long Island City, New York, 2014 A Bit of Brit, Westbeth Gallery, New York City, 2014 Space Womb Gallery, New York City 2013 Westbeth Summer Show 2013 Global Projects, Broadway Gallery, New York City 263 Bowery, New York City Art Expo Show, Jacob Javits Centre March River Run Gallery, Lambertville, New Jersey Maya Stendhal Gallery, New York City Art Forms, Woodstock, New York Art Forms, Red Bank, New Jersey Jardin Des Artes, Tokyo Nueva Artistas De Nueva York, Galeria Ittati, Mexico City Positivism, Gallery Stendhal, New York City Love Show, Gallery Stendhal, New York City Red & Black Show, Gallery Stendhal, New York City Infinite Variety of Abstract Art New Visions Gallery, Ithaca NY Diverse Directions, Art Forms, Red Bank NJ Abstract Visions, Gallery Korea, New York City Invitational, Nabisco Brands Gallery, New York City Furniture On & Off the Wall Bachelier/Cardonski Gallery, New York City Paper, Paper, Paper, Helio Galleries, New York City Corporate Collections Fulcrum Wines Primexx Inc.
