In addition to gestural painting, Schumacher worked with action painting, objects, collages, drawings, and graphic techniques such as etching. Schumacher won international prizes for his art, including the prize of the Japanese Minister of Culture on the occasion of the Vth Intenational Art Exhibition in Tokyo in 1959 and the Harry Graf Kessler Prize of the German Artists' Association in 1991.
