Bio:

Curtis Hendricks began shooting with his father’s 35mm Agfa when he was 15-years old, growing up in a tiny farming town in downstate Illinois. He worked primarily in Kodachome and black & white prints until the advent of digital photography turned his attention to abstract and surrealism, migrating between works of extreme color and stark noir. Since he began exhibiting his extensive portfolio in a number of Missouri galleries he has received numerous awards and recognitions. He believes photographic art has to be about more than just making pictures look pretty. It has to push perception and encourage the viewer to think. It has to be more ‘art’ than ‘photo’.

Hendricks received a Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communications/Journalism from
Illinois State University, and after two years in U.S. Peace Corps received a Master’s Degree in Community Development from the University of Missouri. He lives with his family in Jefferson City.
