James Kalm visits Robert Swain: Color Energy at Minus Space, Brooklyn, New York, on view through July 4, 2015.

Kalm observes that "Swain's sophisticated system of color tones, and spatial relations is a unique direction of investigation, with an obsessive side that boarders on the eccentric. This suite of large paintings, produced specifically for the new Minus Space, provide viewers with an essential view of the artist's achievements."
