Abstract:

The Nasher Museum of Art in Durham paid tribute to the artist Barkley L. Hendricks, who died in April at age seventy-two. Hendricks was known for vivid yet stoic life-size oil paintings of black people. He became a retroactive icon and influenced a new generation of African American artists.
