Talk:Barkley L. Hendricks

Copyvio
Wikipedia article:


 * Barkley L. Hendricks was born in 1945 in Philadelphia, PA. Currently a professor of art studio at Connecticut College, Hendricks teaches courses in representational painting and drawing, watercolor, foundation art, drawing, illustration, and photography. As an artist, Hendricks is best known for his stunning, life-sized portraits that focus primarily on people of color from the urban northeast. Hendricks’s unique work resides at the nexus of American realism and post-modernism, in a space somewhere between portraitists Chuck Close and Alex Katz while also pioneering black conceptualists David Hammons and Adrian Piper. Cool, empowering and sometimes confrontational, Hendricks’s artistic privileging of a culturally-complex black body has paved the way for today’s younger generation of artists, many of whom are deeply indebted to him.

This unprecedented exhibition of Hendricks’s paintings will include work from 1963 to the present.

Text from second website:


 * Having been a visiting artist at more than twenty various, grade schools, colleges and universities throughout the U.S., Professor Hendricks now teaches courses in representational painting and drawings; watercolor; foundation art, drawing; illustration; independent and individual study, and photography at Connecticut College.

Bolded is the stuff blatantly ripped off of the website. That is not blatant enough for G12? The sentence structure is completley intact except for joining a couple of sentences together with a "while also." This is the kind of stuff that would get me kicked out of my university. And the promotional tone of the piece does not qualify enough for G11? hbdragon88 03:08, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Tone

 * "In these portraits ... exude an attitude that elevates them from a disregarded status to one of grandeur. Hendricks’ work is unique in its matrimony of both American realism and post-modernism."

These sentences are opinionated and thus do not reflect the tone of an encyclopedic article. - CobaltBlueTony 20:05, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

 * When will the first of them fall out of copyright? Until then, and unless there were extensive critical discussion of the artwork, we could not include them in the article. The best we could do is what we have now: one in the background of the photo of Hendricks. —C.Fred (talk) 03:08, 13 September 2023 (UTC)
