The Studio Museum has the best openings in the city. Although Barkley L. Hendricks’ opening was in November his retrospective should be seen. Best known for life-sized portraits of black, urban citizens, his work incorporates elements of history painting in a manner similar to Kehinde Wiley, but with more tact.
