Egan Frantz adopts a semiotic perspective towards his art, considering painting as a form of language. In Egan Frantz's paintings, he encodes music, literature, and theology into indecipherable symbols. Between the comprehensible and meaninglessness, his painting conveys an abundant visual experience surpasses any written systems. The composition of Frantz's painting seamlessly assembled with linear oppositions of the chromatic and the non-chromatic in stripes, with all of the power of surface vibrancy and all the potential to induce the indeterminacy that is generated when placing the observer in a visual space that is unresolved, and between categories, that this implies.

Egan Frantz lives and works in Brooklyn, New York and Connecticut. He has had solo exhibitions at Galerie Nagel Draxler, Berlin and Cologne; Miguel Abreu Gallery, New York; C L E A R I N G, New York; Tomorrow Gallery, Toronto; Roberts Projects, Los Angeles; Tilton Gallery, New York; Michael Jon Gallery, Miami; and Fused Space, San Francisco. Amongst many others, Frantz has been included in group exhibitions at Essl Museum, Vienna; The Emily Harvey Foundation, New York; Andrew Roth, New York; James Fuentes, New York; and Bahamas Biennale, Detroit.
