Barry Hendrickson’s much acclaimed series of portfolios:
“Ireland in Black & White” is a stunning and
breathtaking look at the vast and surreal landscapes of
Ireland. His dramatic black and white images of thought
provoking and starkly beautiful panoramas conceal the
rich and tragic history of Irish heritage. These
interpretations of Irish landscapes are luminous in
nature, and rarely seen in this light.
Ireland in Black & White is an ongoing and expanding
body of work, with each subsequent series having a
unique geographical or cultural focus.
Influenced heavily by the legacy of the Zone System,
Barry’s work begins at exposure with a pre-visualization
of the image in black & white and how he will render
this impression in the dark room. In the
tradition of the fine print, he works to develop print
contrast with rich
velvety blacks and an emphasis on relative tonal range.
