The Cincinnati Contemporary Arts Center presented the first in depth survey of Swoon’s artwork, titled The Canyon, from September 2017 – February 2018.

This exhibition outlined the arch of Swoon’s career from 1999-2017 as she became known as a pioneer of women working in street art, a field that has been dominated by men for years, and the growth of her practice to include site specific installations and community based projects that address social concerns through art.

Watch the CAC’s video of the lecture Caledonia Dance Curry, aka Swoon, presented in conjunction with the opening of this important exhibition and the video the CAC created to document Curry’s process of planning for, creating, and installing this monumental exhibition.
