On Beauty: Positive Exposure Documentary By Rick Guidotti

Famed photographer Rick Guidotti shares his inspiring documentary about his passion, On Beauty. Guidotti has spent the past two decades reframing our perceptions of beauty. Formerly a fashion photographer working with supermodels, he now travels the world to capture images of people living with differences such as albinism and autism, using his camera to celebrate and embrace the beauty in those with genetic, physical, behavioral and intellectual differences. Guidotti presents On Beauty—this award-winning documentary directed by Joanna Rudnick and Chicago’s Kartemquin Films, ventures outside conventional standards to expose the unexpected beauty that radiates through his lens—and talks about the empowering effects of a little glamour, allowing people the freedom to feel “I am amazing.”
Guidotti opens the 53rd season of the Creative Living Series sponsored by the Woodstock Fine Arts Association. Attendees are invited for coffee and conversation beginning at 9 a.m. before the 10 a.m. program. Single seat tickets are $25 and may be purchased at the box office at (815) 338-5300 or at www.woodstockoperahouse.com
