Marguiles, among others. Art critic Karen Rosenberg observes that Schmidt’s photographs "transcend Pollock-paints-a-picture clichés; each photograph has its own peculiar aesthetic, from Paul McCarthy’s being caught like a serial killer in a boat spattered with fake blood, to prankster Maurizio Cattelan’s installing his infamous sculpture of a fallen pope." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Show and Tell )〕 Jason Schmidt began his career shooting architecture and interiors and continues to do so for magazines including Architectural Digest and ''The New York Times T Magazine'', as well as for book projects. He has worked with some of the most esteemed architects working today from Annabelle Selldorf to Peter Marino. In 2013 Schmidt was commissioned by the Hammer Museum to document the architecture of A. Quincy Jones for an exhibition 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A. Quincy Jones: Building for Better Living - Hammer Museum )〕 and catalogue. The museum’s Director of Exhibitions and Publications Brooke Hodge writes, "From working with Schmidt on photo shoots of favelas in Rio, a modernist villa in Caracas, and a cozy cabin on Vashon Island near Seattle, I knew he would bring his own perspective to to Quincy Jones’s work. More than straightforward documentation, his pictures capture the spirit of a building."
