SWING LO' explores the life and tragic passing of up-and-coming visual artist Michael Richards, a New Yorker of Jamaican descent who died in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Michael's body of work explores the Black experience in America. His life and art are discussed in the film by a handful of his peers and fans, including artists Dread Scott, Luis Grachos, and Charo Oquet, along with Perez Art Museum director Franklin Sirmans, gallerist Genaro Ambrosino, and curator Christine Y Kim, among others. The film explains how his work was preserved by his cousin in her garage for two decades until it was rediscovered by two curators - Melissa Levin and Alex Fialho, who have worked tirelessly to bring it back into the public eye.
