Hendricks (1945-2017) explores the artist’s relationship to basketball, which provided a significant source of artistic inspiration throughout his life.In his Basketball series, Hendricks applied his keen compositional sense and stylish use of color to depictions of the sport’s essential elements: hoops, nets, backboards and, of course, basketballs themselves. In one painting, the image of a basketball about to make its way into a hoop is repeated twice on a round canvas; on another circular canvas, the iconic black ribs of a basketball are rendered in a bold orange to create a minimalistic yet instantly recognizable pattern.A study in movement and geometry, Hendricks’ paintings offer a uniquely compelling perspective on the sport as an artistic pursuit. This book’s focus on this aspect of Hendricks’ work allows for a detail-oriented study of the artist’s techniques as a painter. \u003c\/p\u003e  ","brand":"Barkley Hendricks, Terry Myers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46071083237610,"sku":"9788857241487","price":18.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/5301\/6298\/files\/41WXUHCNl6L._SY522.jpg?v=1781282431","url":"https:\/\/textbookme.store\/products\/barkley-l-hendricks-basketball","provider":"TextbookMe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
