Sharon Butler posts about the exhibition Erik Saxon: Select Works, 1973-2011 on view through June 11, 2011 at Minus Space, Brooklyn, NY.  Butler writes that "Saxon was a core member of the Radical Painting Group active in NYC during the 1970s and 1980s. The RPG stressed a return to the core concerns of painting, focusing primarily on the monochrome… For the past thirty years, Saxon has worked with the monochrome and it's relationship to its surroundings–the wall, the floor, its location within the exhibition space, and the viewer."
