McArthur Binion
Berkeley:Suite

2018

About the Item

Edition of 35, sold unframed. This print is part of the ‘Berkeley:Suite’ series, which includes various layered combinations of McArthur Binion’s 1970s self-portrait, a snapshot of his childhood home, pages from his address book, and copies of his Mississippi birth certificate, with grids of lines or dots painted with sugar lift. In this print, Binion’s address book pages can be seen on the right-hand side, against the blue wash, with the components of the overlaid grid both revealing, and obscuring this element of the artist’s personal identity. Binion has spent forty years creating uniquely autobiographical abstractions that blur the lines between Modernism, Abstract Expressionism and improvisation. Influenced by his Mississippi upbringing and African American identity, Binion’s minimalist compositions incorporate numerous materials. Monochromatic, obsessively crafted, and deeply personal, Binion’s pieces simultaneously connect to a legacy of modern mark-making and historical roots of the Deep South.
