An Exhibition Opportunity for Peter Schmidt...

Unknown Title, Peter Schmidt, watercolor painting, 1970-75
(from the Schmidt Family collection)

With the support of the Schmidt Family, I have been working towards an exhibition opportunity for Peter's work here in New York City. Several galleries, and now a museum have expressed interest. After a successful initial interview, The Jewish Museum of New York has invited me back for a second meeting with their curatorial board. In support of this endeavor, Peter's family has sent photos of works not yet documented at http://www.peterschmidtweb.com/ to bolster the portfolio. Today, and over the next few weeks I will post some of these works to the blog, and will update the website catalogue within a month.
.
Among these new photos are better images of works previously posted here at this blog: "October Trees" posted March 3, "Wandering the Desert", and "Rain in Watford" posted March 4.
.
Many thanks to the Schmidt Family for their trust and encouragement in this and all efforts to cement his legacy.
