Though primarily a painter, Hendricks credits photography as a key to his practice, which he studied under Walker Evans and often uses as reference to create his stunning, photorealistic portraits. For the first time, they are grouped together in a dedicated volume. Skira and Jack Shainman Gallery have partnered to realize an unprecedented book project dedicated to the artist Barkley L. Hendricks (1945-2017). The project consists of 4 booklets, each of which provides an in-depth exploration of a body of work integral to the artist's output (Works on Paper, Landscape Paintings, Basketball Paintings, Photography), in addition to a comprehensive 300-page monograph which traces the artist's evolution for the entirety of his career.

Reviews for Barkley Hendricks: Photography (Vol. 4)

Hendricks is revealed as a prolific and impressive photographer [...] Hendricks took in the world through his lens, often using photographs he took of particularly stylish or confident-looking people on the street as the basis for his portraits.--Caroline Goldstein Artnet Hendricks's photographs share his trademark wit and pride. Whatever the medium, his sensibility comes through.--Arthur Lubow New York Times Unseen photographs gathered in [this] new publication...looking at how aspects of his painting and photography overlapped...photographs mirror[ing] his full-length paintings of friends and colleagues...casual domestic scenes, American landscapes, and city scenes...with an element of quiet humor.--Gareth Harris Art Newspaper Barkley L.
