"Stage 8" is a 1982 painting by American artist Ernie Barnes (1938-2009). The painting depicts a woman in a white skirt and blue blouse, standing in front of a door labeled “Stage 8”. Barnes is known for his expressive, stylized figures with elongated limbs, often depicted in dynamic poses, as seen in this painting. He is also known for his paintings of Black life and culture, though the subject matter of "Stage 8" focuses more on the figure and a more generic, abstract interpretation of a stage.
