Schroeder has exhibited paintings, drawings, and collages regionally, nationally, and internationally during the past six decades. Highlights of his exhibition activity include solo shows at the Maison de la Culture d’Orleans in Orleans, France in 1983, and at the Kentler International Drawing Space in Brooklyn, New York, in 1999. At that time the Kentler stated that “Schroeder, is a slow motion blend of deadpan intelligence and well tempered wit, creates a new, richer, and often capricious context, a ‘one-time-only syntax’ of found elements turned into art”.
Schroeder received both his Bachelor of Fine Arts and his Master of Fine Arts degrees from Kent State. He taught art and art history at Hiram College between 1962 and 2006, serving for many years as chairman of the art department. His mentor at one time was Robert Morrow, Professor of Art at Kent State, who Schroeder says, “taught me to pay attention to everything”.
