He was highly involved in church conservation until the Second World War. His work was summarized in 1952 in a large-scale photo exhibition of Norwegian decorative painting art. Hendriksen's paintings were featured at exhibitions in Copenhagen, Rome, and Paris (at the 1931 Paris Colonial Exposition), and he is represented in the National Museum of Art, Architecture, and Design. Hendriksen was one of the founders of the Young Artists' Society (Unge Kunstneres Samfund) in 1921, and he was an executive member of the Visual Artists Board (Bildende Kunstneres Styre), in which capacity he made important contributions to art policy. He was the father of the artist Egil Weiglin (1917–1997) and the opera singer Arne Hendriksen. The annual Ulrik Hendriksen Memorial Award is named after him. He died in Oslo.
