Alec Egan (b. 1984) is a Los Angeles based painter. His thick impastoed figurative paintings are strikingly banal interior scenes. The interior spaces his paintings depict are premised on a fictitious memory— willfully playing on tropes of nostalgia. There are moments of clarity in the messy compositions. Particular objects begin to stick out and become repeated across his various canvases. This repetition allows the items to garner their own strength and intensity, despite their mundane status. A pair of socks or plants on a windowsill are distilled into something melancholic and profound.
Alec Egan has mounted solo shows at California Heritage Museum (Los Angeles), Ampersand Gallery (Portland) Freight and Volume (New York) and Western Project (Los Angeles). Selected group shows include Anat Ebgi (Los Angeles), Torrance Art Museum, Western Project (Culver City), and Bolsky Gallery (Los Angeles). Born in 1980 (Los Angeles, CA), Alec Egan received his MFA from Otis College of Art and Design in 2013. He currently lives and works in Venice, CA.https://artsorigin.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/pexels-photo-9471627-e1631795851574.jpeg
