A multidisciplinary artist with a focus in painting, Barrickman makes work in tandem with a diaristic archiving practice. Working toward an ever expandable notion of the human, he looks at structures of place and the wonder or predicament of the temporal. The artist’s working methods have been heavily influenced by collaborative and social art making projects including music, film/video and performance.
Barrickman’s work has been shown at numerous venues internationally, including
at La Panaderia in Mexico City, Karma International in Zurich, The Tate Modern in London, Hyde Park Art Center in Chicago, The Museum of Contemporary Art in Detroit, Cité des Arts International in Paris and The Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.
He was the recipient of a fellowship at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and two Mary L. Nohl Fund Fellowships. He was awarded residencies at Centraltrak in Dallas, the Millay Colony in Austerlitz and at the ICA in Monte Castello di Vibio in Perugia, Italy. His work was written about in Art Papers, Art in America online, The New York Times, Artnews.com, Art Forum and theNewRepublic.com.
In 2021, Barrickman co-founded Mazzzagine Project, an artist-based initiative to produce new works in support of artists and the formation of new collaborations.
He is represented by The Green Gallery and Nathalie Karg Gallery.
