DESCRIPTION:McArthur Binion (b. 1946 Macon\, MS) lives and works in Chicago
 \, IL. He creates highly personal and labor-intensive works that assert hi
 s unique position between minimalism\, identity politics and abstraction. 
 Binion employs materials such as paint stick\, ink and graphite to create 
 interlacing geometric grids on the surface of his paintings\, applied to a
  ground layer of neatly tiled images-reproductions of personal photographs
  and documents-offer a glimpse into the artist’s life. Binion’s work c
 an be found in nationally recognized museums and galleries across the coun
 try\, including the Art Institute of Chicago\, IL\, Metropolitan Museum of
  Art\, New York\, NY\; Mississippi Museum of Art\, Jackson\, MS\, New Orle
 ans Museum of Art\, New Orleans\, LA\; and the Phillips Collection\, Washi
 ngton\, DC\, to name only a few. \n\nThis lecture was made possible in par
 t through the Nan and Ben Stevens Art and Music Endowment and a grant from
  Partners for the Arts.\n\nLecture to be followed by an opening reception 
 for the National Juried Painting Exhibition 2025\, in the Gallery of Art &
  Design\, starting around 7 p.m.
