This exhibition highlighted Stuart Davis's Swing Landscape, the great mural of 1938 commissioned by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) for the Williamsburg Housing Project in Brooklyn, New York. In addition Kathleen A. Foster and Michael Taylor selected an array of paintings, prints, and drawings from the Philadelphia Museum of Art by Davis and his contemporaries to illustrate the spirit and variety of American abstract painting in the era of Swing Landscape.
