      abstract = {Artist Caledonia Curry is known as Swoon to admirers who  follow her work on streets and in galleries all over the  world. She is perhaps best known for the life-sized prints  and figural paper cutouts she has pasted on walls for the  past ten years, each portrait taking on a new life as it is  slowly destroyed by the elements. Much of Swoon's work is  like this - beautiful and powerful but ephemeral. Her  projects are often grand in scope, requiring months of  preparation and huge numbers of collaborators to make them  a reality. And then they disappear. Deitch Projects owner  Jeffrey Deitch provides an introduction to the artist and  her work, and other contributors include: culture critic  and curator Carlo McCormick, Nonsense NYC editor Jeff  Stark, journalist and Toyshop-member Rollo Romig, gallery  director Thomas Beale, and playwright LIsa D'Amour. Swoon  herself writes the captios and an essay on her Miss  Rockaway project.},
