Frank Schwaiger’s art has been widely exhibited. He is a graduate of the Washington University in St. Louis, School of Architecture (Now the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts), and received his Master from Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, where he worked with Buckminster Fuller. He lives and works in St. Louis and is the director of the Columbia Foundation for the Arts, St. Louis, MO. In concurrence with the exhibition, Bruno David Gallery will publish a catalogue of the artist’s work with an in-depth exhibition history and bibliography.

What is that

I hear, music, real, and comes

to me from a another world? Or - is it already in me and finds it’s allotted place?

Strong these messages are and impossible –

Yet we cry.

And, how do these melodies entwine themselves in our hearts?

Like coming home.

If I paint these mystic images, plucked from nothingness, to lodge themselves in your hearts - Forever friends.

Are dreams spun out being; color, shape.

Images of love of worlds floating.

Songs from inside us…

They see us, too.

Messages from another world to touch you.

MUSIC

To our Eyes
