🎨#ArtIsAWeapon #ExhibitClosing “Barkley L. Hendricks: Portraits at the Frick" closes at #FrickMadison on Sunday, January 7, 2024
📍Frick Madison
945 Madison Avenue, #NYC 10021
www.frick.org/exhibitions/hendricks
https://www.frick.org/exhibitions/hendricks
"This 2023 presentation celebrates the remarkable figurative work of Barkley L. Hendricks (1945–2017) through a focused selection of portraiture drawn from private and public collections. This pioneering American artist, who counted the Frick among his favorite museums, continues to inspire artists and designers today...
Barkley L. Hendricks revolutionized contemporary portraiture with his vivid depictions of Black subjects that emphasize the dignity and individuality of his sitters. Beginning in the late 1960s, his work drew from and challenged traditions of European art, and The Frick Collection—with its iconic portraits by Rembrandt, Bronzino, Van Dyck, and others—was one of his favorite museums.
Through a selection of some of Hendricks’s finest portraits displayed in the context of the Frick’s holdings, this exhibition celebrates and explores the remarkable work of this pioneering American painter with an unprecedented display of paintings drawn from private and public collections. Organized by #AimeeNg, Curator at the Frick, and Consulting Curator #AntwaunSargent, Barkley L. Hendricks: Portraits at the Frick considers the complex place of European painting in Hendricks’s art and the evolving role of the Frick in modern American culture."
🎥Reposted from @frickcollection
"Watch as Curator Aimee Ng and Consulting Curator Antwaun Sargent introduce 'Barkley L. Hendricks: Portraits at the Frick...' The show presents fourteen of the finest portraits by the American painter displayed in the context of the Frick—one of his favorite museums—and explores the enduring legacies both of Hendricks’s pioneering work and of the museum itself.

Agnolo Bronzino (1503-1572) Portrait de Lodovico Capponi, 1550–55. Huie sur toile 116.5 x 85.7 cm Frick Collection Madison
Angelo di Cosimo ou Agnolo di Cosimo dit le Bronzino ou Agnolo Bronzino est un peintre maniériste italien, fils adoptif et apprenti de Pontormo, et élève de Girolamo Genga. Il devrait son surnom à son teint sombre ou à la couleur de ses cheveux. Son disciple et fils adoptif, Alessandro Allori, était également surnommé « il Bronzino ». Il a eu sa part dans les débats qui ont animé les artistes de l'époque sur la supériorité de la peinture ou de la sculpture. Ardent défenseur de la peinture, le Bronzino réalise un tableau à deux faces, le Nain Morgante, où il représente un homme de face et de dos, pour démontrer la capacité de la peinture à faire sentir les volumes de la chair. ll entre au service des Médicis en 1539 pour les décorations du mariage de Côme de Médicis et d'Éléonore de Tolède pour laquelle il décorera toute une chapelle du Palazzo Vecchio et dont il fera le portrait en 1545. Ses portraits offrent l'image officielle de la cour des Médicis. Ils sont l'expression d'un pouvoir aristocratique, hors des contingences matérielles.

I hate change but sometimes it’s better to embrace it rather than fight it. Today I previewed the temporary location of the @frickcollection in the Marcel Breuer building on Madison Avenue. I’ve always liked the warmth of the materials used in this Brutalist building and I can’t think of a better place for the collection to reside while the mansion on 70th Street is under renovation for the next two years. They really did an amazing job placing the art, sculpture, objects, and furniture in the best locations throughout the three floors. It opens to the public on March 18 and advance reservations are required. I hope you’ll give this change a chance before you dismiss it. You can see my full tour in Stories. #frickmadison #frickcollection #uppereastside #changeisgood #art #nyc (at Frick Madison) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMA30hTDCr0/?igshid=13u69cru9o0sg

Throughout the years, I’ve amassed blank cards that I’d love to either receive from/give to a special someone. Turns out no one was ever special enough to receive (or give) these so they are tucked between pages of a notebook from 2009. Card #1: New Yorker Cartoons, Sam Gross (2007) Card #2: The Four Seasons: Spring, 1755, François Boucher (1703-1770), The Frick Collection #oldcards #greetingcards #samgross #thenewyorkercartoons #snails #tapedispenser #thefrick #frickcollection #françoisboucher #spring #thefourseasons #specialsomeone #stillwaiting https://www.instagram.com/p/Byyw8mQB5hZ/?igshid=f0ul8fn6l8z6

Joseph Mallord William Turner
“For Turner, colour was never an autonomous phenomenon or an aesthetic end in itself; he used it to establish ephemeral effects, which allowed him to leave traditional depiction behind. This was highly radical. He was convinced that his paintings were of great relevance to the world, and I have for many years been inspired by the sense of confidence communicated through his work and the idea that the ephemeral could carry meaning into society.” – Olafur Eliasson, Tate 2014
Joseph Mallord William Turner was the outstanding British painter of his generation. He challenged the conventions of the time, with new techniques and subject matter. Turner often shocked his contemporaries with his loose brushwork and vibrant colour palette. His work often portrays the development of the modern world.
In ‘The Lungernsee by Moonlight,’ as in other works from his Swiss series, Turner deals heavily in contrast, using mustard yellows and earthy greens against mauve and ultramarine shadows to trace the path of reflected light from the waxing crescent moon. All of this is soothed by the sea-green reflections in the lake’s luminous waters. His technique of building up colour over layers of translucent washes and flecks of paint help refine this subtle evocation of twilight, making it feel at once tranquil and energetic.
Turner had a lifelong fascination with the sea. His depiction of the sea is everchanging, like the sea itself. Sometimes his paintings delight in its calmer face, revelling in tranquil surfaces reflective of golden sunlight. But he was also fascinated by the sea’s potential as a destructive force: his canvases include terrifying waves, storms and shipwrecks.

2. Joseph Mallord William Turner, Norham Castle, Sunrise, Tate
3. Joseph Mallord William Turner, Waves Breaking on a Lee Shore at Margate, c. 1840
4. Joseph Mallord William Turner, Yacht Approaching the Coast, c. 1840-5
5. Joseph Mallord William Turner, The Scarlet Sunset, c. 1830-40

Stuck my phone through the fence of the @frickcollection for this photo and luckily didn’t drop my phone. It’s sad that the Met Breuer won’t reopen again since i missed the Gerhard Richter exhibition. The Met Breuer will transition to a temporary location for the @frickcollection while they undergo an unpopular renovation. I still don’t know why they didn’t buy the townhouse that’s still for sale next door to the garden but when one museum gets a fancy new glass building, they all want one. If this pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that maybe we should all be a lot more grateful for the things we do have right now. #grateful #nyc #uppereastside #frickcollection #flowers (at The Frick Collection) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDXcLVbHFwH/?igshid=v7ii9au4qhry
