"Sacrifice of the Watermelon Virgin Or Shirt Off Her Back" by Barkley L. Hendricks

21.5 x 30 inches, offset lithograph on paper, limited edition of 80 (1987)-- unframed

 

Barkley L. Hendricks was born in 1945 in Philadelphia. His unique work contains elements of both American realism and postmodernism, occupying a space between the portraitists Chuck Close and Alex Katz and the pioneering black conceptualists David Hammons and Adrian Piper. Hendricks is best known for his life-sized portraits of people of color from the urban northeast. His bold portrayal of his subject's attitude and style elevates the common person to celebrity status. Cool, empowering, and sometimes confrontational, Hendricks' artistic privileging of a culturally complex black body has paved the way for today's younger generation of artists.
