Across Painting; drawing, McArthur Binion has developed a practice centered on minimal grids built over photocopied personal documents, joining formal repetition to autobiography and Black history. The work is best understood in relation to Contemporary abstraction, where material choices and visual structure carry as much weight as subject matter.
