            HALLEYTHOMPSON LES

            For over twenty-five years, Peter Halley’s geometric paintings have been engaged in a play of relationships between what he calls “prisons” and “cells"”—icons that reflect the increasing geometricization of social space in the world in which we live. His work has been exhibited in galleries in Chicago, London, Madrid, Moscow, New York, Paris, Rome, Seoul, and Tokyo. Two of Halley’s metallic color field paintings are hung prominently in Thompson LES’s SHANG Restaurant.

                SLIM AARONSGILD HALL

                Photographer Slim Aarons made a career out of what he called “photographing attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places.” A collection of Aarons’ finest photographs fittingly grace the walls of Gild Hall.

                  SPROUSETHOMPSON LES

                  Stephen Sprouse is revered in the fashion and art community as a punk-artist pioneer. His Declaration of Independence graffiti fabric adorns the furnishings in the Above Allen lounge at Thompson LES—bold testaments that reflect the libertine spirit of the Lower East Side.

                    MCGINNESSTHOMPSON LES

                    Ryan Mcginness' art is full of icons, signs and corporate logos, and yet the communication seems to have collapsed in a dense structure of visual languages. Ryan Mcginness has been called a new Warholian pop iconographer. He challenges the borders between popular illustration and high art. He adapts imagery from graffiti, tags, ads and other visual vocabularies. His motives are stylised and the arabesques are well organised in calligraphic flows and tattoo-like patterns. It is a language of public signage and contemporary iconography articulated trough colourful compositions and layered collages, where information is being transformed into geometric abstraction. His Chain Reactions series hangs in the Thompson LES Penthouse.
