Barkley L. Hendricks: Basketball is the third volume in a five-part series published by Skira and Jack Shainman Gallery devoted to the work of American painter Barkley L. Hendricks (1945-2017). This installment focuses on basketball as a recurring subject in Hendricks's practice, examining a body of work in which the sport's visual elements, hoops, nets, backboards, and balls, became the basis for paintings that are as much about geometry, color, and composition as they are about the game itself.
Hendricks applied his characteristic precision and stylistic confidence to circular canvases and bold graphic forms, producing images that are immediately recognizable while remaining formally rigorous. The volume offers a focused study of this aspect of his output, with reproductions and commentary that situate the Basketball series within his broader career as one of the most distinctive figurative painters of his generation.
