An exhibition poster for Peter Doig: House of Music

69 x 99 cm

This poster is produced on the occasion of Peter Doig’s exhibition House of Music at Serpentine South, 10th October 2025 – 8th February 2026. It is an image of one of the works presented in the exhibition – Hololo Mountain Road, 2019.

House of Music brings together recent paintings and, for the first time, integrates sound into Doig’s work. The exhibition features two sets of rare, restored analogue speakers, originally designed for cinemas and large auditoriums. Music selected by the artist – from his substantial archive of vinyl records and cassette tapes accumulated over decades – plays through a set of ‘high fidelity’ 1950s wooden Klangfilm Euronor speakers and the Western Electric/ Bell Labs sound system produced in the late 1920s and early 1930s.

Each painting in the exhibition engages with music in a different way: some depict spaces where music is played or heard, others show musicians performing or people dancing. Many of the works were created during Doig’s years in Trinidad (2002–21), a period that deepened his relationship with music through sound-system culture and cinema. Blending personal memory, found photographs, and imagined scenes, these paintings are shaped by the wider cultural context of Trinidad.

Artist

Peter Doig

Peter Doig (b. 1959, Edinburgh, Scotland) grew up in Trinidad and Canada before moving to London to study at Saint Martin’s School of Art and Chelsea School of Art. Since 2002, he has divided his time between London and Trinidad where he set up a studiofilmclub, an influential repertoire cinema club he hosted in his studio in Laventille. Major survey exhibitions include Tate Britain, London (2008, travelled to ARC/Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris and Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, 2008–09); No Foreign Lands, National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh (2013, travelled to Musée des beauxarts de Montréal, 2014); Fondation Beyeler, Riehen/Basel (2014–15); National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo (2020); and Courtauld Gallery, London (2023). In 2023–24, he curated the exhibition Reflections of the Century at Musée d’Orsay, Paris, which placed his works in dialogue with selections from the museum’s collection. Doig taught for many years, notably at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, Germany, where he held a professorship from 2004 to 2017. He was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1994, and in 2008 was awarded the Wolfgang Hahn Prize by the Gesellschaft für Moderne Kunst of the Museum Ludwig in Cologne, Germany. Doig was awarded the Praemium Imperiale Prize for Painting in 2025.
