Paint, bleach, meat, paper…. Dallas-based artist, William Binnie takes in the history of America, and the narrative of Western art. “Flame as Flag” consists entirely of “paintings” made with household bleach on stretched canvases of blue denim, completed between Binnie’s residency at the Rauschenberg Foundation in summer 2014 and the following three months in São Paulo.
Solo exhibitions include Terra Incognita at The Public Trust (Dallas), Webs at Maloney Fine Art (Los Angeles), and Drawing, Painting at Greg Kucera Gallery (Seattle).
Group exhibitions include The Dallas Collective: Every Person is a Special Kind of Artist, with Baggage at the Texas Biennial in Marfa, TX and Hit the Lights at Paul Loya Gallery.
Binnie was most recently selected as an artist-in-residence at the Rauschenberg Foundation in Captiva, FL.
