Posthumous Recognition
On August 25, 2009, Governor Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver announced that Scholder would be one of 13 California Hall of Fame inductees for that award. His work was then featured at The California Museum's exhibit of the work and contributions of that year's Hall of Fame laureates. The induction ceremony was on December 1, 2009 at the Museum in Sacramento. Scholder's Future Clone sculpture was included in a scene in Darren Aronofsky's 2010 film Black Swan, in which it has been described as "chilling like a Baselitz painting, all devoured face and wings, an evil spectre".

“One must be a living man and a posthumous artist.”
