Art Exhibition
Behind Chuck Schroeder’s “Rendezvous…” art exhibition
On Nov. 21, the “Rendezvous…” art exhibition had an opening reception and Schroeder was in attendance to converse with guests and show appreciation for the new exhibit.
Brooke Goedert, the culture and operations manager for NIC, coordinated the opening reception and helped set up the exhibit.
Goedert said that Schroeder’s collection of works reflect his encounters with the wonders of creation, his deep family roots in Northern Wyoming, the enduring spirit of a rural Nebraska County Fair and the enchanting magic of the holiday season.
“His artistry invites us to see the extraordinary in the ordinary, capturing moments that resonate across time and place,” Goedert said in an email.
Schroeder said that the inspiration for his artwork is heavily drawn from religion.
“It is the opportunity to engage with God’s creation, whether it’s a person in a portrait or a landscape,” Schroeder said. “The opportunity for me to use the gifts that God’s given me as an artist to capture the essence of those living things is what really drives me every day.”
Schroeder said that he has been in many different jobs before becoming a full-time artist, which influenced Schroede’s pieces.
