Barend (1953) ging in de jaren zeventig in Amerika en in Venetië in de leer bij topfotografen Ansel Adems, Christian Vogt, Ralph Gibson en Duane Michals. Hij heeft in ruim veertig jaar fotografie veel laten zien. In zijn foto?s streeft hij naar een combinatie van schoonheid, mysterie en polariteiten. Zijn werk is o.a. aangekocht door het Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, The International Polariod Collection (USA) en de Bibliothèque National Paris.

Zijn werk is o.a. aangekocht door het Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, The International Polariod Collection (USA) en de Bibliothèque National Paris. Al in zijn puberteit is hij met fotografie bezig met de geleende camera van zijn vader. Op zijn achttiende heeft hij geen idee wat hij wil gaan doen en kiest ervoor iets ?nuttigs? te gaan studeren: elektrotechniek aan de Technische Universiteit in Delft. Tijdens een uitwisseling vanuit de TU naar het MIT in Boston, Amerika, wordt Barend uitgedaagd om te onderzoeken hoe hij zich, naast zijn basis studie, verder wil ontwikkelen als persoon. Dan komt gelijk de fotografie naar boven en hij gaat les nemen aan de afdeling fotografie waar topfotografen als Duane Michals en Nathan Lyons Ralph Gibson lesgeven. Wat een openbaring dat ze op zo?n niveau het vak fotografie hebben aan de universiteit! Aanbevolen door zijn docenten in Amerika krijgt Barend een beurs van het International Centre of Photography in New York en het Prins Bernard fonds voor Venetië. Het is 1979 en de Biënnale vindt er plaats. Voor Barend een fotografie-hemel, een mekka van techniek en kunst waar de hele internationale wereld van de fotografie bij elkaar komt.
