An evening with Anthony Schmidt
Join photographer Anthony Schmidt for an evening at the Studebaker National Museum Friday, Aug. 4. Dr. Joshua Diehl, former chief program officer for Child and Adolescent Services at LOGAN Center, will moderate a special one-on-one conversation with Anthony in the Wiekamp Auditorium. Topics will include his stunning photography, his vision and process, and Diehl’s experience working with the autistic community and the arts, in particular.
Anthony Ryan Schmidt is a teenager with autism from Washington state whose artistic abilities combined with his passion for collecting model cars have turned him into a world- renowned photographer. He practices forced perspective photography: a technique utilizing optical illusion to make objects appear smaller, larger, closer to the camera, or further away from the camera. His work has been featured in “Car & Driver,” “Hemmings,” “Wheel Hub” magazine, a special segment on the NBC Nightly News, and he has won an award at the Hall of Honor ceremony in Las Vegas for his outstanding contribution to the diecast car culture.
Anthony will be available following the talk to sign copies of his new book, “Shifting Perspectives,” and select photographic prints. Both the book and prints will be available for purchase in the museum store.
Tickets include admission to the museum, access to the exhibition — “The Photography of Anthony Schmidt”— and the talk in the Wiekamp Auditorium. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. The theater program will begin promptly at 6 p.m. Because seating is limited, advanced ticket purchase is strongly recommended. Purchase tickets at the museum store or studebakermuseum.org/event/anevening-with-anthony-schmidt.
