Ally Fallon joins Hales

Hales is delighted to announce representation of British painter Ally Fallon. Fallon (b.1998 London, UK) lives and works in Manchester, UK. He received an MA in Painting from Manchester School of Art in 2023 and was part of Louise Giovanelli’s Apollo Painting School programme in 2024. Fallon was named the winner of the 2025 John Moores Painting Prize, becoming the youngest artist to win the prestigious award. He will have a solo exhibition at the Walker Art Gallery in 2026 and will be featured in New Contemporaries at South London Gallery and MIMA in 2026.
 
Fallon’s painting practice deftly combines structure and spontaneity, drawing on personal experience and a sustained engagement with interior spaces. Working within the legacy of British abstraction, his paintings extend a lineage concerned with materiality, spatial tension, and the act of painting itself, while introducing a contemporary sensitivity rooted in lived environments and psychological space.
