About Eugene Schroeder:

I studied spray painting, so graffiti art is an important element in my work as well. I mean it’s all just art really, only this form is sprayed and is often found outdoors. Who knew you could study it in college? Text really is the ultimate form of abstract art, just ask the Chinese, their writing, as well as our own is all based on picture-grams. I get compared to Escher sometimes and I love that because Escher was the first artist to really blow me away. My dad bought me an Escher monograph when I was eleven and I used to marvel at it for hours. Some years later I went to go see the Robert Longo retrospective at the LA County Art Museum and it was then I knew I wanted to make my life about art.
