The Estate of Barkley L. Hendricks presents "All is Portraiture," a major exhibition of the artist's work at the Marian Goodman Gallery in Paris. The show, running from February 6 to April 4, 2026, features a comprehensive checklist of Hendricks's portraits, offering a focused look at this central aspect of his celebrated practice.
This exhibition matters because it brings Hendricks's influential portraiture to a prominent European stage, reinforcing his legacy as a pivotal figure in contemporary painting. Staged by his estate and primary gallery, the show provides a significant posthumous platform for his work, highlighting his unique contributions to representations of Black identity, style, and individuality within the art historical canon.
